    I'm installing a tranny cooler. My issue is getting some barbed adapters so I can run inline with the stock cooler. I want to run a barb off the stock cooler outlet, to the new cooler, then back into the stock line. It looks as if I need to run 5/16 adapters...but I can't find any. 3/8 is to big and 1/4 is to small, has anyone gotten around this? Or am I looking for the wrong kind of adapter?

    I've taken pieces of the original lines, cut and put a slight bubble on the end of them. Never looked for barbs, just tossing out another idea.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    I've thought of that, I'd prefer barbs if anyone had found some that worked.
