So i bought a new pump for my splitter, I went to change it today and noticed it looks like my inlet and outlets are in different spots on each pump. i attached some pictures although its hard to tell. one one the inlets closer to the shaft on the other the outlets closer to the shaft does that make any difference?

Doesn't matter.
 
different brands maybe.
BUT are they different displacements, or one single and one two stage?

if you have done the homework for the pump selection, the ports won't matter. flip the pump around as needed.
 
Thanks for the replies. Hooked it up right after work today. Splits great. I can't believe i went this long without changing it. Old one was slow and single stage which made it a bear to split. Gotta watch my fingers now :shut:
