Is it possible to thread in a brass or stainless elbow and bypass the factory connector going directly into the hose?

I was thinking the same thing but the plastic is thin so i wasnt sure how much plastic the fitting would have to hold to to. Aslo would add jbweld or something to really secure it. Just questioning it since its pressurized

I asked another forum member who is more knowledgeable than me to stop by this thread and offer some advice. Hope it works out.
