Beautiful truck btw, love what you've done with it

Thank you for the compliment! Yes, it definitely was a tight fit on the top hose, but with a little silicone spray it slid on fairly easily. The top hose never really concerned me. It was actually the bottom hose. For mine, it slid on there a little too easy. I'm afraid it might not be tight enough and may have to add a regular hose clamp that I can tighten down more than the spring clamp.
