    Hillbilly Chiller help Please!

    Thanks for the respose JohnnySocko! You're probably right, they're only 1/2 inch lines, but exactly the specs that dude had in the video. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this, with the same lines? pumps in the back buckets maybe? lift the back buckets up a couple inches maybe? I dunno... :(

    Awesome! Thank you grownups! I'll start the overdrive for those two weeks when the trichs are cloudy. I'm not sure I get what you mean by "curl over" though.
