The air isn't under a tremendous amount of pressure, so I imagine almost any T-fitting with the right size to hook back up to your intake box would work. I chuckled at the water hose, though, that does seem about the right size lol. When mine was cooked, I checked moparpartsgiant.com and those hoses seemed pretty hard to get. You might have luck at a salvage yard, just gotta make sure they are clean. The only real issue I had was that first chunk of plastic that connects to the breather. It needs to be solid to keep it from crushing. I experimented with some thick heater hose - didn't work. Hopped on the motorcycle with a pair of channel locks and robbed one off a Dak at my local yard. Seems to be holding up well.

Sounds like I'm going salvage hunting this weekend I definitely want to get this done right the first time, but alas things never go as smoothly as planned. I guess we'll see if this fixes the issue or if I'm back to square one! The truck's sitting at about 150,500 miles now and I'm hoping to get many more.
