Fuel Pump Fuel fitting help

Hey guys, I got my new fuel pump on. But I'm really having trouble getting the fuel fitting on the back of the pump. should I loosen the turbo pedestal to give me some more room? It is a wicked PITA to get that fitting . thank you for any advice

Chris, I assume that you don't have a Cali truck. Have you tried to loosen the bolts holding the pump down, that should give you a little wiggle room to get that rear bolt aligned and started. Try that before you start tearing into the turbo mounts.
