so ive got some rusty lines, so I ordered up a multipiece replacement set for my 4x4 02 Silverado 1500.
now that I get to looking at the install, it appears they are clipped all over the top of the transmission, and while 2 are nice and visible on the top of the side of the engine, the 3 appears to be connected buried somewhere up jammed against the firewall, in the diagram. I cannot even manage to see it. The repair manual does not refer to having to pull anything other then the top plastic shield on the engine.
Any advice on how to attack this to get useful access? pull the wheel well apart? pull the wiper tray?
give up and only replace the back half? (don't like the looks of connectors at the transmission flex section, but don't think theres a straight enough section past that that I can fit fittings in to patch it there)
