Filter hose not fitting new pump

[Makdaddy]

So I was running an old Cristal Flo II Sand Filter Tank with 2HP, 2-Speed Pump
Pump only runs on low so I ordered a Hayward SP15932S

Docs from both the Cristal and the Hayward say 1 1/2 connectors
But the new Hayward pumps connector to the filter is to big? the collar ring wont screw on.
Out of the top (Hayward) to the filter , just like the old pump
Do I need an adapter or reducer?

Ill be running around today to see what I can do to make it work

Yup, you can go either way I imagine. An adapter will get you there. Check Lowes or any good hardware store plumbing section. Get creative and let us know what you end up using... pics always appreciated.

Unions tend to be proprietary threads for maximum inconvenience. You'll need to buy the Hayward unions and do some cutting and splicing.

No Luck at Lowes or Menards

So I was able to get to a Hayward dealer in the town I work
They use the inside threaded portion. seems universal
So 2 new fittings and a high pressure hose some thread tape and 2 new SS clamps, and I should be good to go this weekend.
