Why don't you let the OP decide if a question directly related to this topic is hijacking or not and find another thread to white knight in...

Inflation is real and these prices aren't likely to go back to whatever normal was. If you need it buy it, this will only get worse...

I have a wildfire lift and can only comment on it as I haven't owned another. It is rock solid in both form and function and looks clean as well. There is zero concern about the lock stops being milled out of the steel posts, when you look at them it's obvious how strong the design is. I...

Part arrived and other then not being able to be precisely clocked or timed rotationally because it does not have a spinning collar on the female side it works! Basically flared male side seats like any other compression fitting (it comes with nut and ferrule) and the female side has a rubber...

I appreciate all the ideas and discussion, am going to order one of those angle compression fittings anyway to see if it does what we're looking for here. ETA: ordered and I will update this thread when it comes in!

What I've done so far. I put a wrench on the base of the valve inside the box and rotated it clockwise as far as I thought I could without feeling like the PEX was going to be compromised below. In essence giving it a bit of a new memory point. It settled back into an angle bringing the line out...

Checked every imaginable place in our large city/county I could and nothing, even commercial plumbing Co's. Think that linked female/male 90 compression fitting is the only thing in existence for this apparently. I did not think of finding an 1/4" SS braided compression line with a right angle...

It's PEX below, can't see it through any gap at the bottom as it's fitted behind the sheet rock and too tight but I found it below in the crawl space. Think the easiest fix here is getting one of those female/male compression elbows and call it a day. Here's a pic from below, it's the white one...

It would be great if Ace carried them but I couldn't find anything other then pipe thread street elbows and none that came with a line kit. Hose is brand new for what it's worth!

Yes that's a good catch, we thought it may be but the commercial plumbing outfit compared it to their ice maker kits and believe it may be an integral part of the valve assembly, in essence forming part of the ball valve capturing system as the whole things pretty compact. Decided against trying...

Different threads, ones tapered and ones parallel but they are not compatible with each other.

That's the same one I linked to above from another poster who linked to a thread that ended up finding it. Thanks for confirming, so strange it's that difficult to find.

Neither Ace or True Value have it, not even an commercial plumbing Co locally had one. Think lots of folks are mistaking 1/4" pipe thread 90's which won't work for compression ones.

Yes the stainless line threads on, male valve side, female line side, standard ice maker setup. Problem is finding a 90d elbow that is compression thread on both sides with one being female and the other male.

That plumbing link I posted only goes to a pic, it's 4th up from the bottom, left column https://www.plumbingsupply.com/compression-fittings.html#025

Neither of those HD ones are correct, they're not compression on both ends

I'll check HD again tomorrow, thanks!

It's possible I missed something at HD but they don't carry this.

Believe this is the one, anyone confirm?

The link to that fitting above (which was the one I needed) says it's been discontinued by the manufacturer. Ugh...
