Cooler line kits

does anyone know a place that sells a tranny cooler line kit in stainless steel braided lines. I already e-mailed Hughes and they don't make one for a F-body. I jsut want to get rid of the hardlines, but i can't just cut it a slip a rubber hose over it becasue it will leak. Anyone have any advice?

Whats wrong with cutting the hard line, and flaring it before you put the hose on it? I've done it 100xxx times and have yet to have one leak.

It doesn't matter as long as the hose clamp has something in front of it to keep it from sliding off.

You could use russel line fittings to convert to 6an and due the braiding with swivel fits. Would probably cost like $100 to do.
