Aeroquipt quick fittings or SS lines for oil cooler
 

Just want to see what's everyone thought on the SS AN lines vs the aeroquipt/setrap quick fittings rubber lines for oil cooler.

My quick fittings popped off going into turn one at VIR, soaking the front wheel with oil and causing me to spin into a wall, so I kind of don't like them. Maybe if you have a ton of slack in the line they would be fine, but I had new lines made up at a hydraulic shop.

Also, two other guys had the socketless ones fail, and a couple guys have had the GTM kit supplied lines fail. Maybe in the long run, the Nismo one might be the safest answer, although I don't think anyone has had a failure with either Z1 or Stillen coolers.

Yikes, thanks for the tip. I will go for the SS lines then. I am leaning toward making my own kit rather than buying one since I want the 25 row. The 25 row kits are around $600, I figure i can save almost $200 with my own.

Thanks

Check the Oil cooler DIY in my sig...Covers all the issues, including discussion on both types of lines...

I honestly don't see how, if assembled properly, the quick fittings can fail. I decided to shorten a line I had made, and literally had to cut the dang thing out. I know a few local guys who run them for fuel and oil on their Sprint cars, and they swear by them.
