A quick question... I'm installing the Frantz filter (under the truck on the rear of the front crossmember, upside down) and I'm wondering what is the best way to push the hose onto the barbed connectors. What have you guys done to make the easier?

Take a pan of water and boil it on the stove and heat the hose up for about 1 minute and slip it right on the barb fitting no problem. Another way is to put the fitting on the floor and push straight down on to it. Let your body mass do the work.
