Gas lines

I am moving the gas tank to the rear. I have a tank for 72 blazer, and I want stainless gas lines from motor to tank. Any help on where to get them.

Re: Gas lines

I took a 5 ft piece of 5/16 brake line and ran it inside the frame rail, I used spiral wrap where it might rub. I secured it with adel clamps to the frame right next to the brake lines. I went from the tank to that line with rubber hose and hooked into the existing cab line with rubber fuel hose too. I capped off all the vents on the tank except for the filler neck vent, works like a champ! Make sure to get a vented cap or she'll really build up a vaccum!

Re: Gas lines

Re: Gas lines

Any supplier of aircon/ heating Co. has rolls of stainless 3/8 tubbing. Which is what I used.
