    Depends what you want. Go to their site and it will tell you what you need. Find a hose that fits. If you still have to remove the skid for the filter don’t bother getting one.

    What hasn't been modified?
    Do you have real skid plates?
    Do you want to use a hose to control where the oil goes?
    What adapter?


    I have pelfrebuilt 3/16 skids, and use the one with no nipple. Can put a pan or jug underneath to drain the oil

    I use no nipple because the valve is oriented perfectly parallel to the ground.

    On my Subaru’s I use a nipple version because those are at a 45° angle and I like to control where the stream goes.

    I’ve got a sos skid have the long nipple and use a hose. Works great a little slow on draining but I grease all the zerks during this time. Makes for a super clean oil change.
