Here's where the problem happens, the powersteering line rubs on the transmission cooler line and eventually causes it to leak. As you can also see in the pic is that I took 3/8" rubber hose and put it around each line and ziptied it. I did this last September and haven't had a problem yet

I crawled under my Jeep and could not find those lines. They must be for the Automatic transmission.

No TOC (transmission oil cooler) lines on a manual transmission.
