I went through the trouble of cutting off the factory crimp with a dremel, it took me about an hour to do both

after I attached the 3/8 hose, it leaked like mad!

if you look at the hard line under the hose, it is textured to match the crimp (but not flared)

save yourself the time and just cut the hard line, which is what I did in the end and it took 5 minutes

Thanks for your post. Since I purchased here in England, I got 2 meters of hose. Hedging for more like you recommended.

You were spot on. I even wrote to the customer service folks at Summit to ask what the B&M 70264 came with. Thier resonse was:

"The BMM-70268 includes the cooler, pull through radiator mounting straps, brass hose barb fittings, and 3/8" rubber line.... Hose does come with clamps. There are no mounting brackets"

Was please to unpack today and find all the accssories needed, which would have been a bit difficult to find here. My trust level with the Summit representative is low.

I did my install last weekend. here is a picture of the end of the hard lines that I cut off. I could not get the 3/8 transmission line to not leak without cutting the ends off

I routed my lines differently, I routed one line to the right and the other to the left, I use 4 feet of extra 3/8 transmission line from Vatozone

Finally did this mod last week, using this write up it was very easy and didn't take long at all. I mounted mine closer ( 1/2 to 3/4 inch space between cooler and condensor) and you can feel the air being pulled through it at idle with the fan running. Also routed my hoses a little differently to hid them a little better. Thanks for great write up.
