Aftermarket Fuel Doors - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has anyone here used a Yearwood or Hagan fuel door? I've looked at a few different possibilities for my tank relocation and these are the only "complete" setups I found. Plus my truck being a LWB the sidemarker conversion is not all that easy to do and my tail light door idea is no walk in the park either

... The best thing about these is that they come complete and ready to install. Here's what the one I'm thinking about using looks like... If the attachment works

That looks pretty good! I have a LWB myself, and haven't looked into how hard it is, but have heard that it isn't as simple as with a SWB.

I've installed a couple of those from Hagan, they're pretty nice. When you cut the hole, trim it carefully for a tight fit, and take your time welding it in to avoid warping your bedside. The cap holds the filler neck to the box, but you don't have to remove it to put fuel in. Personally, I think they're a little pricey, but they are a nice modification. Frank
