Post by 4sum4 »

My rear air locker line got snagged on my last drive and ripped out from inside the centre.do I need to take the centre out to fix or can I leave it in?

So you snapped the Brass Bulkhead?

If it has snapped of flush with the housing and the piece that screws in from the inside is still ok then it is possible to replace it from the outside. As long as you can get the broken piece out.

But to be certain you get it right it could be easier to pull the centre.

Unless you have ripped the brass fitting out of the centre you shuld be able to be replaced with the centrre in.

What has ripped out?
If its just the blue line pulled thru it can be reinstalled with a new olive.
