incab fuel filler question

Post by Zorm »

Ok, I am in the process of getting another bed for my 250. The old bed has the extra tank under the drivers side with the filler there also, new bed will not have that. I was thinking about using the in cab fuel filler and run it back to the under bed tank. This would free up the space behind the seat and keep the lines kinda factory. Would this work? any cons anyone can think of? any ideas?

thanks

it would take more work than might be possible. you would have to have a series of tube and or hoses to make the connection and you would have to cut another hol in the lower cab to clear the bottom of the bed. and then go out level to the tank filler hose. one of the easiest way is to put in a dentside filler neck and door on the side of the bed. or just recut a new hole in the side of the new bed and run the filler neck back to where the factory had it at.
