I've definitely seen that happen a time or two on your ride!

Can you do braided tranny lines with screw in fittings to eliminate the possibility of that happening again?

Its all fixed now. The last type of lines were a push-lok style. It blew the hose right off the fitting. Its like the barb on the fitting failed. I could pull it on and off with ease. Usually with push-lok, when the hose is put on the fitting you have to cut it back off.
