My blazer is getting prepped and I wanted to get rid of my elbow knocker and make it smooth for a modern cap. I want to know if I need to purchase new pipes for the gas to go down or just modify the existing. PLEASE need answers asap. I want it to look like these

I saw one guy hide it behind the rear marker light. I'm not sure if you want to do that sort of thing but I think its the best look.

It takes some time, fuel door hinge from most any truck, I cut and rewelded the factory fill tube on mine. There's a thread or 2 on it here somewhere.

I can't quite recall where it was. I'll take a look around and post back if I find it.
