The Ultimate AN Fitting Guide & How-To : Everything You Need to Know - Ep. 67

This time around, we're getting nerdy. We're taking a deep dive into everything there is to know (for the basics, at least) about AN fittings, plumbing, hoses, and lines. I'm explaining the difference between sizes, fittings, hose types, PTFE and rubber, as well as showing you how to assemble AN lines. Thanks to Vibrant Performance for sponsoring the build!
