[QUOTE="Tabres, post: 15411435, member: 8059"] All of my series 8000 stuff is push-lok/push-lite/socketless-barb/whatever you want to call it, and to be honest it is a real pain to assemble. I know there lots of youtube videos and techniques out there that is supposed make it easy, but I've never found it to take anything less than a ridiculously unreasonable amount of effort to get the fittings and hose together properly. I've been buying all regular hose ends since my initial purchase because of it. That said, though.. The quality of the components is nice. It's comparable to the Earl's and Aeroquip stuff I have on my car. They swivel well, the finish has held up really well for how many times I've had them off and on without proper AN wrenches (I just put electrical tape inside the jaws of a crescent wrench to protect the finish), and I have never had a leak from any of my cooling system or fuel system lines. And I've never had a vapor smell, either. I'd recommend it. [/QUOTE]
