Default oil cooler lines

Hello everyone
I am about to replace the oil cooler lines on my 91 LT5. Looks pretty straight forward..any tips or hints on doing this successfully? Thanks for the help

Have a cup & some rags ready for excess oil out of the oil cooler. This is a good time to change the oil and filter also.

I have the o-rings, any gaskets or anything else I will need?

I took mine to the car wash to get rid of the oil that had seeped into all the hard areas to clean. Have a good wrench available to tighten the new ends...it is a limited area for a wrench to fit at the right angle.

Make sure you get the old o-rings off and you can find them....kind of hard to find them when they fall down in the oil cooler shroud.
