I just installed the 3 way tee for the right cyclinder port and just noticed something. I think I may have cut too much of the tubing because it seems like its putting a lot of pressure onto tee on both ends. I don't like the way it looks and it seems that eventually the tees could put enough pressure on the tube that it causes it to wear out. Stupid me.

So I'm off to either buy a longer 3 way tee or buy tubing to replace whats already there and try again cutting a smaller amount of the tubing out. If I read this thread correctly the stock size is 3/16in correct?

Also for anyone attempting to do this...and item on the "Parts needed" list that wasnt included...I dont know what they are called but you need two of those clamp things that secure the tubes to the tee's for the new 3 way tee for the right port. Or you could just use a zip tie as I see Vex had on one of his tubes. Its always those little things that get me...
