I've used swagelock and Parker before at work, that fitting still looks like you need access inside the tunnel to tighten it up, ie a regular bulkhead fitting... Or are you suggesting I cut out the section to fit it and then weld it back in?

Pan should be rolling again today!

Ricola if using "bolt on" fittings you can have the line come out as much as you need for fittings. Then, just use rubber grommets where the line goes through the pan.

To use the bulkhead fitting's you would need to cut access panels that could be removed (bolt in, not welded) later if needed. Also, you would need access to put the nut on the backside of the bulkhead fitting. IMO wouldn't trust a mechanical connection sealed inside the tunnel. I would like the option to "check" the connections from time to time. (maybe I'm just paranoid )
