It's been 3 years since I installed mine...let's see, I mounted mine sitting on a cushion of red Permatex for shock protection. I also made both lines teed the same length although I don't think length mattered. I also used a very large Robart can as I did not know how fast this valve would use air since it is always cycling when applied, (sort of like anti-lock brakes in your car). You don't need any special tubing...any air line is fine. The main reason I used a large air can is because I wanted to run the engines up and then release the brakes...think Doolittle Raider on Hornet deck. Pretty cool to watch the nose gear compress and then release. I used a good brass T in the air line and did not make any other cuts in the lines. I hooked everything up before installation just to teach myself how everything worked. I wanted to make sure I would know what to do if anything needed repair. I have had no issues with the brakes. Hope this helps.
