Good tip!

I didn't realize you can just cut those, I assumed it would compromise the construction in some way and possibly allow it to split.

@@alabamadirtrider Yes hoses can trimmed with a fresh razor blade or a tubing cutter from Lowes Home Depot. …… just make sure to be careful not to cut yourself while doing it.

Thanks for the tip, I'll try trimming it next time I'm in there

Awesome, glad it was helpful!

My really came out rather easy, but if you search KZfaq you can find examples of it going poorly. I think if it doesn't go easily, heat really is the next best step so that you don't strip out the splines.

Relatively easy to do, just finishing up putting back together. Just need a socket for the tube removal tool and put a long thinner hex wrench from the side through the top holes to keep it fixed in the frame. Slowly turning the socket will break the top coated threads. Curious if anyone has put some rubber grommets or something at the top over the t-hose outlets to keep the hose from rubbing against the frame.

@@meder07 😂 No need as nothing will happen! Samco hoses are top quality and only way to find out is by using them. Fit correctly and you’ll never look back.

If you go to the Slavens website and look for the T hose, you'll see a "clamp kit" in the "kit" dropdown, that's how I got mine. For example, here is the one for my 300: slavensracing.com/shop/frame-t-piece-hose-for-ktm-by-samco-sport/

@@alabamadirtrider Thanks! That’s helps a lot:) appreciate you answering me

Not a problem, glad I can help!

I test fitted it the other way and it didn't look any different, I'll just trim the hose next time I have it off. Hasn't been a problem so far.
