What is the right Switch?
I have a factory NL2 option auxiliary gas tank set up ready to be installed in my truck and the switch I got with it was a standard toggle switch like most I have seen. Yesterday I saw this switch posted and sold on the parts board (SEE BELOW). Can anyone tell me what came stock with this option? Did it depend on what plant it came out of, etc, etc...... I want the correct switch for my truck and had never seen the one below until yesterday.....
Thanks, Todd

Re: What is the right Switch?
I'm not sure how(or if) they came from the factory, although I believe most were dealer installed. Here's mine as well as the tank valve mounted on the floor between seat and door.

Re: What is the right Switch?
I believe the correct switch is the one shown in the pic you posted. Here is a pic of the one that was in my 72 Custom Camper...

Re: What is the right Switch?
Concur, correct NL2 fuel gauge selector switch is displayed in first post. Travel Tanks are aftermarket or dealer installs. The floor fuel selector valve only directs flow, it's unrelated to the dash fuel gauge selector switch.

btw, Does the factory valve look the same as the Travel Tanks valve?

Re: What is the right Switch?
Here's the valve. Don't know what the saddle tank bags valves look like.
