Good luck with this question; I tried to get that size two months ago and NO one seemed to know! It is not in the manual as far as I can see either. I want to use AN type fittings to install a cooler too, and I can't find anyone who knows or is willing to help. I hate to take it apart and "fiddle" with it trying to guess at the proper size. If you find out, I would appreciate your sharing the info with me. Thanks :rolleyes:

Thanks for the response. I saw your post while doing a search. I wanted to use fittings so it could be returned to stock. I disconnected the fitting to the radiator to see what possible sizes would work. Noted that the fitting to the radiator was pretty specific. It concerned me that the wrong type fitting might hurt something, so I decided to cut the line. My cooler came with clamps and two sets of barbed fittings. I used those and it worked out fine. To put it back to stock will just require one in line connector and clamps.
