Does anyone know what size bolt is used to mount the TV cable to the transmission on 2004r?

I assume it is metric, as everthing else on it seems to be.

Also, I heard that the cooling line on the 2004R are reversed from the turbo 350.. ie The top radiator line goes to the bottom connector on the trans, and the bottom line on the radiator to the top fitting on the trans..
Is this true, or does it not matter?
I also plan on mounting a trans cooler and some people say mount it before it goes into the radiator because if you run it after the radiator the fluid does not get hot enough.. This does not seem right as all coolers I have seen say to run them after the radiator.

Thanks

yes tv cable is metric. it is 6mm by 1.25 thread. for the cooler. it goes from tranny to bottom line on radiator out the top line than into your external cooler and returns to the tranny.

does the top line on the tranny go to the top bottom of the radiator?

Yes - coming out of the trans they are opposite of a T350. The top fitting on the trans is hot out, bottom fitting is return. I run mine from the hot out to the bottom of the rad, top of the rad to the ext cooler then back to the trans. Works well - never see temps above 150.

Will it hurt anything if the lines are plumbed the same as the Turbo 350...top line to top line and bottom to bottom?
