After a few months I ended up disliking it has it kept popping off its cheap little mount. So 3rd version was to get a pump off eBay (don't recall its brand) and fitted to the tank that came with the truck. I been happy ever since this last "version".

Pretty sure I spent way to much time and money on this LOL.
I tried that but it leaked out of the hole/grommet [I probably drilled the hole too big]. So I got another tank and went with the inline version, I like the idea of the stock filter on the pickup as well.

I made a bracket behind the tank hiding the pump under the fender to keep the stock look to under the hood. Even got creative and ran the wires to the stock plugin through a piece of vacuum tubing to hide them.
