Well guys I finally got finished cutting, bending, adusting, grinding, etc and got the filler hose installed.

Here is where my fuel filler neck will be.

I had to cut a 3" hole beside the existing hole with a whole saw. Basically you just cut the 3" hole as far over as you can without getting into the side support.

I also had to grind some of the bottom of the bed off inorder for the fuel hose to make a straight shot to my fuel cell.

I also had to cut roughly 4 inches off of my filler hose and then bent it where it needed to be. (3" whole saw also shown)

If this idea works I will do a full right up on all the tools and parts needed to complete this task.

Hope it works! Thanks for your support guys!
