I just picked up a 91 LX 5.0 vert with an AOD and the transmission cooler lines are leaking by the radiator. The car currently has barbs screwed into the radiator with rubber lines (about a foot long) that connect to hard lines. The rubber lines are clearly aftermarket clamps. Was this the original set up or did it come with hard lines from the tranny all the way to the radiator?

Hard lines from radiator to transmission with hard fitting connections.

If you have extra slack, try cutting off 2" or so and reinstalling the hose and using better clamps to secure it.

^^^^^ this.. Buy the biggest plate style trans cooler you can fit in front of the radiator/condensor and bypass the one in the radiator
