Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build
have you run your tank to pump fuel lines yet?
If so, what did you use? I am not sure what to use; I just know that I dont really want to string 3 or 4 tubes along to make one that is good length for the task.

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build
Very cool build! What gas filler door did you use? I just got my tank in on tues and I need to figure out where to put the gas door at. I'm probably putting it in the bed floor. Looking good though!

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build
do you have strap under that tank and if not you should...
i just ran to a problem today i got a hair line crack were the bolt hole is at. im thinking its from the weight of the gas pushing down on it. are those tank aluminum or metal? |

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build
Mcmurphy - I used 2 3/8" hard lines with a union fitting, then a small piece of soft line from the framerail to the pump, and fron the tank to framerail.
Zipp- I got my filler at West Marine, it will be under the bedfloor when you drop the tailgate. Sick - no straps, maybe I will add one, you have the same tank? Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build
Thanks, I may have to do the same thing. I am guessing they are the 70" lines from the parts store? I am going to need to do a return line too on mine, both the fuel pump and the tank sending unit are set up for it.

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build
Having that raised bed floor gives you all kinds of room under there for stuff like the exhaust. Truck is looking great!
