Z1 cover.
Reality is, it has been maintenance time for my truck. New front brake pads, rotors, driver's side unit bearing, and new Bilsteins all the way around again. They lasted 120k miles. Can't complain. Last edited by Spooler; 03-22-2018 at 07:56 PM. |

1st and 2nd pic's. Was told that I couldn't use the upper side port in the Z1 cover for the return line because of the sensor location. And would have to use the bottom, fill port for the return.
3rd and 4th pic's. Found a way to use the upper port. Used a banjo fitting. AN 08 x 18mm. x .150 with an elbow installed on it. The return line goes over the top of the sub-frame.

1st pic. you have to remove this heat shield. It's in the way of the plumping of the cooler and fan.
These next pic's are about making you own stainless hose. I got all of the fittings and hose from Jegs. The size is AN -8. List of parts. Need 1, 555-28012 | JEGS Need 3, 555-110002 | JEGS Need 1, 361-AT230308 | JEGS Need 1. I got a 10ft lenght. 3ft would be more then enough. 361-410008 | JEGS Need 1. This goes on the inlet side of the cooler. 361-AT812008 | JEGS Need 3. 361-AT809008 | JEGS The Banjo fitting come from Pegasus Auto Racing. These ain't cheap. Need 2, https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/pr...asp?RecID=8754 Need 2, https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/pr...sp?RecID=10034 Need 1 package, #3278-M18 https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/pr...p?Product=3278 I have extra hose and some fittings left over if anyone wants them cheap.  2nd pic. Making my own Stainless lines. Not hard to do. First measure your line. Tape up the area to be cut. The tape keeps the stainless from coming apart. 3rd pic. I use a die grinder with a 4" fiber cut off wheel. Makes for a fast straight cut. 4th pic. This is what your hose should look like after removing the tape. 5th pic. Installing the outer part. You have to use some force to get it where it has to be. 6th pic. Put hose lube inside the hose and on the inner piece. 7th pic. Starting to install the inner piece. This can be a bear to get started. 8th pic. Once the inner piece is started. Mark the hose with a Sharpie at the rear of the outer piece. This with let you know if the hose is moving out of position when you are screwing in the inner piece. 9th and 10th pic's. The end is finished, and the hose is finished. Ready for install.

1st pic. The diff cooler assy is installed. Here, you can see where the return line goes over the sub-frame from the pump.
2nd pic. Here's the return line going into the upper port of the Z1 cover. 3rd pic. Here's the inlet line from the bottom port of the Z1 cover to the cooler with an inline filter.
