'06 transmission return line from radiator

I want to put a magnefine filter on the transmission, but need to know which line from the radiator is the return line to the tranny. Can some one help? Thanks.

it is the lower line coming out of the radiator....

why do you want to do that there is a magnet in the bottom of the pan....if you put one on the line, your line has a possibility of clogging up....

Thanks for the info, I did not realize there was a magnet in the pan to catch smaller metal particles. Guess I'll forget about installing the filter in the return line and buy gas instead.

Yes, there is a magnet in the pan plus a large replaceable filter.

That return line is so small that would clog up pretty quickly, then boom goes the tranny.
