Does anyone know of an adapter that will convert the lower transmission quick disconnect at the radiator to a barbed or AN fitting?

Or does anyone know the name of that fitting so I can do a better search for an adaptor?

I have a 1998 XJ and the quick disconnect seem to be the new type with no plastic clips. However, I have found these which seem to be the old style of fittings.

Does anyone know if the old style fittings are compatible and what the male fitting size is on the radiator? Seems to be 3/8" but im not entirely sure.

I found the part in case anyone else needs it in the future:

I'm not sure if this is the same question but I have a similar problem. I'm replacing the stock radiator in my kid's 99 XJ with an all-aluminum unit I picked up at a surplus auction. It's the same part number as this one: but the transmission cooler fittings are both AN unlike the part shown in the pictures there. What's the easiest way to adapt the quick-connect fitting? The Jegs part in the previous post appears to be the wrong "sex", i.e. I'd have to fabricate a short quick-connect male to male hose to match the two female quick connect fittings? Is there something else I should be looking for?

Also, I'm having a heckuva time getting the existing quick-connect to disconnect. I see plenty of threads on the topic going back a few years but are there any new ideas on the topic? Any of the standard 3/8" quick-connect release tools should work, right?

Thanks!
