Depends upon who's kit it is. But most of them are;
1/8" pipe thread
4 AN fittings

Ive got an old bennett pump and those are the sizes on mine. Just recentlyswitched to the braided lines from Superdave-awsome setup that looks tits.

If your going to convert to an fittings for under the water use I would suggest going with stainless. The anodized aluminum fittings corrode pretty bad if they are constantly under water. Electrolysis eats them pretty bad. Even if you trailer your boat every day.

I forget what I paid, I went with the inside & outside. My concern was leaks, the bling is secondary. The fittings are polished stainless, not annodized aluminum fittings.

And if you do any braided hose, spring the extra couple of bucks and get the teflon hise instead of the normal rubber. The rubber wears out in a few years, and you are stuck, the teflon doesn't wear out in our lifetimes...

Yep! Just measure your setup or better yet, bring the boat with you. Measure inside from where you want the bulkhead fitting to the pump, then from the bulkhead fitting to the hydraulic ram. Be sure to give yourself some extra for bends. If you bring the boat with you he will take care of the measuring and it will have a nice fit.

BITCHIN! does anyone have his number? whereabouts is he at? i wanna get these things done for sure...yeah the ones inside look twice as long as they need to be...i think the way its plumbed right now is they are all one piece, just a center nut at the TA...not 2 separate lines. thanx alot brendellajet.

Since I read that you're going to the Long Beach swap meet Sunday, have Jim Brock point you in Dave's direction. I believe he always has a spot there.
