How are you guys doing with this? Have you ordered everything necessary?

We were able to obtain a makeshift plastic union (purchased at Lowes) and instead of using a longer plate, we increased the plate amplitude by adjusting the top standoff position on the threaded rod. The ram pump is now functional, so we didn't need to order these new parts yet.
