Didn’t see where this was addressed directly, but could’ve missed it. Ordered new rear bags, passenger side for my 99. My old bags had large 1” (?) ports with a 40 degree or so angled fitting.
As mentioned in other posts, Newell is shipping the newer bags with a much smaller port. They offer a fitting kit to step up to the larger fitting on the hoses.
The drive axle bags are fed by a single hose that Ys to feed both bags. The Y is very short and made to comfortably fit that angled fitting. Not sure if this is common.
With the new vertical fitting assortment, the hoses are too short.
Wondering if anyone had a school solution already that didn’t take 10 adapters to make work?
