Alright so i keep getting oil leaking from the lines on my oil cooler I'm pretty sure. Is there a way to replace the lines or do i have to replace the whole assembly ie the oil cooler?

where can i get the crush washers to replace the old ones when i pull the lines off? Would mitsu dealer have them, and how many would i need?

You need 4 for the OFH. I got mine from STM, a vendor on here. They call them Oil Cooler Washers.

...and 4 for the oil cooler end if you're retaining the banjo fittings there.

so if i go the route of replacing the lines ill need 8 crush washers. got it. thank you. Trying to get some answers about the oil cooler kit extreme has. Don't want to order it if it's not better than the 90 though.

I have that B&M cooler, but the engine is just going in this weekend so no review but I have used their coolers before with great experiences. If you remove the fittings in your cooler then yes you will need a total of 8 washers. The B&M kit has AN fittings and adaptors for the OFH that use the same sealing washers.

thank ya, my friend told me just to take the lines off and take them to the local brake shop and they would give me new lines and put the fittings on them for me for cheap so im probably just going to do that to save money for ecmlink.. down the road ill purchase one once i get some other stuff i want done.
