Kevin and I are having an issue installing the update kit I purchased from Pelican. The oil line on the right side seems to be an inch short. We tried stretching it, but can't get it to reach.
Has anyone else had a similar issue installing this kit? If so, what was your solution? Thanks in advance. Pieper |

The pressure sender fitting makes up the difference.

You need the oil pressure sender and mounting block to take up that space.
