I'm looking for some ideas on how to turn the conduit nut on to the headlight assembly. After working for some time I got one to go on, but I'm unable to get the other one to turn in place? Thanks ahead of time for whatever you can tell me..Dwight

A little more info would be helpful. Is this a brass or stainless one? Is it reproduction or original?? Is the slots aligning or is the thimble not able to slip over the sleeve???

It's stainless and it feels like there is to much pressure, or the bullet ends stick out to far.

bratons has the correct ends for the head light wires and you can cut the bullits off and instll the correct ends and order the correct holder for the wires that go into the headlight and you should be go to go unless you got cheep conduits that are not made correctly. good luck bud
