Transmission hose broke while offroading

After 30 min of offroading I start to smell oil through the a/c so I stopped and checked and Infound this



So a friend with a white toyota



Pulled me to the road so I could get a tow truck to haul me to my house







So I got a new hose and refilled the transmission fluid

Do someone sells aftermarket hoses that don't break? Or what can I get so this doesn't happen again?

 

Can't tell from the picture... where is that hose located on the truck?

 

Its the hose that goes from the transmission to the transmission radiator, you can get to that part of the hose through the wheel well

 

If your tranny is toast I have one for sale

 

Thanks but tranny is ok

 

I bet its toast

 

i think youre tranny will be fine.

I wonder if it was rubbing on something? these motors/trans mounts arent the greatest and everything in the engine compartment moves around quite a bit.

 

Im really trying to figure out how this happen

 

Either something was kicked up to cut it or it was deliberate sabotage. Got any ass clown neighbors?

 

Looks like it got chewed

 

No it was cut while offroading, Im thinking maybe a rock or something

 

Rock didn't do that unless it got snagged on something, and if it snagged on something it would have eventually pulled off of the hard line, and the hard lines would have been bent.
That was fucked with. Someone "chewed" that with a pair of pliers.

 

From the first picture it looks like it got sliced by the metal part to the left.

 

Maybe, but that looks like the back of the TRD "skidplate"... which would be in front of the hose and would only cut it if he's backing up.

Ya... stainless hoses, and in this case, even without AN fittings... that would give enough durability.

 

hmm sounds...convincing. hose looks like it has a clean cut/slice to me

 

That's not a TRD ''skid plate'' its a fox reservoir mount



I figured out it was cut with that mount, I think the hose got in between the mount and the frame and in the woops its moved till it got cut. That's what I think, couldn't be cut by someone because it happened while wheeling. I checked everything before going offroad and everything was ok.

 

Ya, that's probably it. It's definitely in the right place.

First thing, even if you go in with braided stainless hose, take a piece of fuel line, slice it the long way to make a "C", and RTV the hose around that fuggin edge.
