Default Udder Reinstallation

Ok, I took out the battery and then the udder for inspection. Real easy taking it out.
Anyone have any suggestions for putting it back in?
The area is so tight, I can't tell if the flapper end is kinked

Thanks for the help!

Forget the flapper. I posted an "udder mod" when I did my windshield wiper motor a few weeks ago. Search that, it works great. Here's the link. HTH

Thanks for the tip. However, I was hoping to get the stock part where it belongs... I'm kinda short on time.

Does anyone know if the flapper end fits into anything, or does it just hang there? Any diagrams?
Thanks!

Here's the best way to re-orient the long udder..Remove the right front wheel and the inner fender inspection plate..You can then access the bottom of the udder and make sure it's not kinked at the bottom...
