So I finally bit the bullet and purchased the Axis specific Hi-FLO front and rear ballast upgrades from Wakemakers for my 2013 Axis A22. I went to install them and looked like this :shock: when I opened the box. There are 5 holes on the rear ballast and what looks to be only 3 tubes to attached from my PNP system. 1 drain tube coming from the rear of the compartment (stern), 1 drain coming from the front of the compartment (bow) and 1 fill tube on the port side of the compartment, opposite of the engine. 3 in total. Wakemaker provided quick attach connectors which seem relatively easy to attach. What am I suppose to do with the remaining two ports? I do not see any included plugs to cap off those holes. Am I missing something? I tried to call for support but closed on the weekends. Any help would be much appreciated!

Should only have 4 holes I would think, 1 at each end of bag, 1 for the the fill valve line and one would be a plug to vent the air on top of bag. We actually closed the valve and plugged off the fill line on my buddies 13 A22 because the bag will fill and drain from both ends of the bags, I plumbed in overflow/vent lines for him where the old fill line hooked up to the bag. It doesn't fill any slower not using that fill valve. He just runs the axis specific flyhigh 400s in the rear.

Thanks! I actually got it all installed today. I finally found the parts in the box and then better understood what i needed to do after watching a few videos. Plugged two holes and connected the remaining 3. The bow bag is giving me some fits as it drained 50% and then would not drain the remaining water. If I turn on the drain for the front for a moment water comes out and then stops. I turn off the front drain and the back on and it repeats with a about 1-3 seconds of water coming out the side and then stops. Not sure what is wrong.
