I am hoping it won’t jeopardize the structural integrity of the bed by cutting it out. It does say on the website this isn’t a 1 hour job and requires some fabricating skills but this looks pretty intense. I am not a rookie fabricator but it’s gonna be tough cutting in such tight spaces. I am hoping the new instructions tell me what tools he used to cut it out. I’ll post an update with the instructions.

I am also worried a little about fuel flow since the fuel
Hose will be pretty much flat for about 18” before dropping into the tank. I wish they would have shown the whole install in their promo videos and in the picture.

If anyone is considering getting this kit you might hold off for a bit until a few of us have actually got it installed successfully and the instructions are updated.
I was wondering how to get in there and get that section cut out. Very little room.
Anyone have any ideas?
