Re: Fuel tank Filler
If you are going to put a filler into the bed right above the tank, try the local boating supply place for a through-the-deck fuel fitting.

Re: Fuel tank Filler
If you opt for out the bedside. I cut one out of a newer model truck at the pull a part. It only cost me $5. If you want a remote release, the door from a 94-97 Grande Cherokee i also round. I just don't have the tools to cut it out. Of course then you'll have to fab the filler tube and make mods to the inside of the bed and box. Hope this helps, Cnut

Re: Fuel tank Filler
use the search function and check out what other's have done...
cheapest to to put a cap on the top of your tank, and put a trap door in the floor of your bed. Or use the boat deck filler as mentioned. like this, they make SS one's as well... search ebay ![]()

Re: Fuel tank Filler
I bought mine from Classic performance products. $80 plus $15 for the hose and clamps. I cut a hole in the bed floor and welded the bed corrugations so that the filler was flush with the bed floor.
