The return line location is not in the OEM pump's location
Stock Pump
Makes more sense to put it on the BACK then you dont have clearance issues with the bracket. Anyway I took the dremel and cut off a little of the fitting so I could slide the hose up onto it. Its on there now and I'll also screw clamp it along w/ the factory clamp so it shouldn't leak.

I dont like my stock housing thats why I got this one. The fill section has been cut in half and extended with a longer section and band clamped together with blue tubing. Will not flow well at all with the new look under the hood hence getting the new pump. Just didn't think they would do something as stupid as putting the return tube at the bottom of the housing less then a 1/2 inch from the bracket. Either way its on there now and I'll be sure to clamp it with a screw clamp along w/ the sock clamp that is on it.
yeah no kidding. I think I took the path of least resistance, I think cutting that tube shorter was more easy then grinding away a part of my bracket. It is such a tight fit on there no there is no way its coming off b/c the bracket is keeping pressure on the line keeping it on the return tube.
or you didnt oil the puller bolt haha just messing with ya. On a side note a slight in and out movement of the pulley is ok as long as there is no wobble . As for the low presure hose yes its tight at the fitting and yes its easier to attach the hose prior to installing the pump.
