I wouldn't bypass any sort of cooling component. A good parts house could crimp new hoses for you (propably not chain stores). Local place here crimped new tranny cooler line for my grand prix for free, just purchased hose there is all. I've never been a fan of hose clamps on oil lines. Hate to be going down the road and see the oil pressure needle resting at zero because of a stupid hose clamp lol. I'm sure bypassing it would not be the end of the world, and hose clamps would probably work. To me it's a "quality of work" issue. If it's nice enough to fix it's nice enough to fix right. And that's an extremely nice truck you have.alright guys i got some leaky oil cooler lines like most of these trucks lol. I have bypassed them in the past, but being a 7.4 i decided to do some research, apparently bypassing the big blocks is a grey area and i cant get a for sure answer, can anyone lead me down the correct path? I dont really want to buy new ones just for them to leak in a year or two, I guess i could cut the crimp off and hose clamp them like some people do. whats your guys opinions
i had an oil bypass filter on an old truck. used hose clamps. made a corner and noticed an oil spill line behind me. one of the clamps came loose. never used 'em again.
can you tell me how do you have a manual shift 4L80? I have a gearvenders on my NV4500 MW3. I never heard of the 4L80. I read a lot of the swaps and mods cause that's what I am into.
Love the duelly. Fact: GM was the first manufacturer to use Duel rear wheels on a non-commercial truck. two years later the option for 4wd was available.
I would love to have that truck. I would swap the 454 ci with a duramax 6.6L turbo and a Allison 1000 transmission. better for towing and better on fuel economy. I have plans drawn up for that build.
4L80E is an auto. i swapped one of the solenoids for a billet plug bypassing all electronics and have full manual control. what ever gear you have it in it will stay there. i will be putting a floor shifter next. will put the GV switch and TCC switch on the stick.can you tell me how do you have a manual shift 4L80? I have a gearvenders on my NV4500 MW3. I never heard of the 4L80.......
Glad to see you around here again. Good looking truck
