Hello, I am making this post because I'm nervous about my splice job. In September of 2025 I had to make a splice on a transmission return line on my 07 Dakota because the front diff is sized and wouldn't drop. I lack a lift and the line just wouldn't go in so I made the decision to splice in near the part of the line that's connected to the transmission. It's been working so far but I'm nervous about it failing and killing the transmission. I just wanted to ask how long splices typically last on your guys trucks so I can get an idea of how long I have to replace the line.

I did use transmission graded hose for the splice with two clamps on each end for good measure.

Thanks in advance
