Bill...thanks for this information, this is what makes this forum work.

I am pretty good with a wrench after being an aircraft mechanic for years, but looking at this it really looked like a difficult job just getting to the clamps.

When I ordered the new Y duct from Pelican, they have Customer Reviews for their products much like Amazon and other large mail order houses. There was only 1 review for this part, but in the review whoever wrote it said it was an easy job and took him 20 minutes. It doesn't look that easy to me.

Hopefully your excellent description of the job will save me hours of time. I appreciate it very much Bill.

Is there anyone else out there who has done this job who can add to Bill's instructions? Your additional help would be greatly appreciated as I don't enjoy reinventing the wheel.
