Re: Tail light fuel filler
I was able to fab everything up for little cost with a Marine filler neck /cap assy, handsome plate metal from Atwoods. It took me 2 or 3 times making one from scratch to get it right, but once you get started it's not that big of a deal. You just have to cut away quite a bit behind the drivers tail light assembly.

Re: Tail light fuel filler
thanks man. i have no problem making one from scratch. its just with work and the kids, it would be great to just buy one pre-fabbed, ready to tack in there
ive seen one guy run his through the reverse light. after youve done this, do you think that would be easier or harder than the tail light? thanks |

Re: Tail light fuel filler
I understand about you not wanting to have one yourself. I felt the same way, but not being able to buy one, I had no choice. I definitely would not try to do on through the reverse light, there is not enough space!

Re: Tail light fuel filler
What is needed to order a bent piece from you? Be happy to work it out, however you want.

Re: Tail light fuel filler
Wynne, does the guy that was building them with you have any for sale? Or, will he still build any?

Re: Tail light fuel filler
Hugger did you ever get a printable template of your design?
I would love to be able to make one of these. Even just measurements for the pieces and where the bends are would be awesome. |

It was fun though, and turned out ok I think. It still needs some fine tuning(rubbing, spring tension, paint, etc), but I'm satisfied so far. Filling the tank will be the real test. Thanks to you guys that helped with ideas and parts.
