This is exactly how a tutorial video should be! Slow, great explanation and good up close imaging of what you’re doing! So many people have the camera so far away that you really can’t see what they’re doing, to understand what they’re doing! Thanks for a great video!

A,properly manufactured high quality AN fitting should be fully tightened until the flats of the Hex are aligned. Your example was out by approx 30°. So it was either a lesser quality or not quite tightened all tgd way. Good job on showing how far to bottom out thd hose portion into the nut as that is also a critical dimention.often overlooked.

Some brands or so called experts say to leave 1/8th" between to two fittings. Are the using a different brand of fittings? I am quickly loosing track of brands and right v wrong. This build is mine, kinda want it right. Thanks for video!

I heard some say you need teflon tape? I been looking at a transmission cooler on amazon and it comes with AN fittings. Some reviews say the fittings need teflon/plumbers tape. I wonder if it also means I have to put an fittings on my factory transmission lines too?

@midlifecustoms

Ай бұрын

@Soldier1287 AN fittings don't usually use teflon tape. You might be able to find a adapter fitting to go from the factory line fitting to the AN fitting on the transmission cooler.

Good video. How come other videos show that you need to fray the nylon and stainless braid back a bit to install a compression sleeve before installing the AN fitting? This Evil kit doesn't seem to use those types of fittings.

A few minutes later, I can answer my own question... because it's not PTFE hose. Those fittings with the "olive" are for PTFE hose. You're just using regular nylon hose. 🙃

Bit of a dumb question, but the other side of the fitting still swivel when it's fully tightened down? Or does it become rigid

Is it just as easily achievable to put the hose together if you dont have a vice?

@midlifecustoms

Жыл бұрын

@bmwe39m5 it can definitely be done. But it being fine thread and going into the hose it does get pretty tight. So if you have a vise it helps.

So it just slides ride into the hose and it seals correctly?

@DomTheSoccerMom with a straight cut on the hose and pressed up to the back of the inside of the fitting then threaded down. It should seal correctly 👍🏻

Curious. I have this exact fittings and hose, was planning on replacing a hard steel hose thats on my rack and pinion, do you know if this style of an fittings and hose is rated for high pressure power steering? Thanks

Rack and pinion pressures run 400-600PSI, depending on the brand. Recirculating ball steering gear boxes run 800-1,200PSI and low pressure return is under 20PSI. DK, ASE Master tech since 78, retired.

@Preston Boling the actual an fitting wrench is made from aluminum. Which I guess keeps it from scratching the fittings. Happy to hear the video helped.

Thanks but what’s the point of a AN hose end if it just sits in there by tension? You’d think tightening down the hose end will also tighten the hose sitting inside. A fitting with a barb end will be better because at least you can tighten the hose down fully with a hose clamp
