Default Don't buy the DORMAN oil lines!

So the output line started leaking where the rubber goes into the metal joint. That POS didn't have 5K miles on it!

I bought the OEM ones this time around and you can tell the rubber hose is where Dorman skimped on the quality.

Changing the oil lines is a messy, frustrating affair. Was not happy to do this again in less than a year.

The factory ones lasted 19 years, and only gave up the ghost because they were rubbing against a plastic air deflector and made a hole in the joint. Impressive in retrospect.
