I hear that, sucks budgeting your build week to week. thats where I'm at right now. Sometimes I get myself in a little trouble with my credit card but I try to keep it tamed. Doesn't help when summit sends you a summit credit card offer!!!!

ouch!

crossfire84 · 07-02-2013, 04:10 PM

Put my fuel tank in and put the filler on the rear fender, saw this done by a member on his TF. it looked so cool I had to do it on my AD.
I used a 1 1/2" hole saw to get things started then went in with a die grinder with a 3/16" carbide ball fine pitch cutter, very easy on the fender no heat build up. I found a piece of 1 1/2" exhaust tubing on the speedway web with multiple bends in it, perfect. I thought i'd keep the stock filler unit with the truck.

crossfire84 · 07-02-2013, 04:11 PM

A few shots of the finished job, it will sit down a little lower when finished.
