LF- Replacement elbow for g1 skimmer

[yahutch]

Looking for a 3/4" replacement outlet elbow fitting for a g1 skimmer with sedra pump ( the part that fits into the gasket on the skimmer and connects to pump ). Is there someplace local I can find one . I have already tried Home Depot, Menards, and 2 different ace hardwares with no luck . The part I am looking for I found in this link , but is out of stock at the site http://www.customaquatic.com/estore/control/product/~product=PS-SMG-ELBOW-007

I probably have an extra that I could ship ya, but if you can, I just saw this old mod that I just did. Where the elbow would go, see if you can put it directly into the uniseal of the skimmer body. That will make the intake of the pump face downward, but I don't know if there's enough clearance on the outlet. I had to add some pvc to make it work, but it seems to be producing better foam. You'll have to place it in a way that the pump's weight will be supported, but worth a shot in case you can't find a replacement. The poster claimed 20%+ increase in performance, but take that with a grain of salt.
