A/C drain Tube Relocation Kit

[Lunch Box]

I think you would have made a good gastroenterology physician!!!!

I have not done the Klina treatment as I have not had issues with odor!!

I hate it when I lose things in the hole!!

I have the hose arriving on Friday to do this mod on my truck.

I read the TSB and that answered one of my questions, which was that the metal cage should be removed and discarded for this.

My other question is, it appears from the picture on post #39 of this thread that there are some small plastic fins and tabs left on the stub out once the metal cage is removed, did anyone trim these off with a razor knife so the new tube would slide farther on and give the hose clamp more space?

Thanks.

My other question is, it appears from the picture on page 3 of this thread that there are some small plastic fins and tabs left on the stub out once the metal cage is removed, did anyone trim these off with a razor knife so the new tube would slide farther on and give the hose clamp more space?

Thanks.

I didn't... Just stuck the new hose on and tightened the clamp. I left it long so it pokes out from behind my wheel liners rather than trimming it flush

I did. I used a Dremel tool from the bottom.

I trimmed the little plastic fin part with a razor blade prior to installing the new drain hose.
