Anybody have pics of how you done your fuel filler with a bed fill tank with a steel floor instead of a wood floor? Thanks, Jason

I'm in.

bbcmudtruck · 12-15-2013, 11:37 AM

I'd like to see some of these as well.

Ridgeclimber · 12-15-2013, 12:36 PM

This is what I've done. I didn't want any thing on the bed floor just incase I wanted to haul something. I have the truck all disassembled now and I am doing the body this winter. I will the weld in the fuel door assembly into the box side. The bed floor will be done after I instal nolimit rear rail kit and c4 corvette rear suspension.

Ridgeclimber · 12-15-2013, 12:38 PM

Here's another picture. I couldn't figure out how to attach more then one picture at a time.

RexDodge · 12-15-2013, 02:01 PM

You'll have to look close. Sorry for the lousy pic. It's from a late model suburban. 2" fill neck makes for no burbs on fill up!

Hey guys, check out Project: Jezebel. Scott told me about it last night, I really like how he done his bed . I think this is the route I may go. When finished it looks like it would have came from GM that way!!! Keep posting ideas though, I like to see everybody's touch. The Jezebel pics are on page 12 of his build if anybody wants to check it out. Thanks, Jason

Ridgeclimber do you have the whole side of your bed tinned in.? Can you give us a pic from further out.? I can't tell where your filler cap is. I have a door similar to yours I could use.

I like the way the guy in this thread did his...(blue truck)

Matt can you fit a 2" fill line in your setup or only a 1.5"..?

snipescastle2 · 03-11-2015, 08:04 AM

I bought my gas filler at a local marine dealership, cost me $35.00 and it's polished stainless steel too. same part LMC/classic parts,etc... sells for $70.00 so, keep that in mind.... looks just like the one in post #18
Have a good one!

Sorry I'm just now seeing you're question.

I transition from 1.5" to 2" just after the filler neck. Initially I ran 1.5" hose to the tank, but it filled really slowly and was prone to spilling gas out the cap when filling. I swapped to 2" and it hasn't been a problem since.

Graham57a · 03-23-2015, 10:38 AM

Might not be what you're looking for but we relocated the tank on my dads truck and he used the stock fuel filler location. Just ran a line from the cab back to the tank. Here are a couple pics

mcbassin · 03-23-2015, 02:05 PM

THIS is how I did mine.

Thanks for that. I like your setup, it leaves most of the bed usable. Does yours have a vent line going up close to the filler.?

My tank has a rollover vent installed on the top. That seems to allow enough air into the tank when it's filling.

I like the way you think! The first pic shows how I went through the bed cross rail. The finished product was slightly different, but you get the idea. Sorry the pics somehow got rotated.

Tinkermc · 12-15-2013, 10:51 PM

MattPSU very nice

SC C-10 · 12-15-2013, 11:04 PM

I went this way. It sort of matches the look of the bed bolts.
