Thanks. Did not plan to ground the filler neck. The tank is grounded

Chris, I have one off of a 80 stepside, but the guy I bought the truck from cut the hoses off flush with the tank. Should be pretty easy to make work. Let me know if you need it.

Thanks, but my issue is the second tank. Looking at my line I pulled off, should not be that hard to get a flex hose installed. Called a couple locasl shops yesterday, one said no luck the other said I had to buy a 10' section for $110. Thanks but I will pass. I think I will get one online and hope for the best

Thanks

Ok, the one I have is for the left side tank. I decided to just run a single right tank.

Looks like lmc sells one for both sides on the stepside for 73-78. Looking the website that sells the flexible lines had a review that said it was too difficult to work with. Leaning more on exhaust pipe bends with straight flexible pieces

I can't seem to find the filler hose at classic industries. Not sure why. This is not that old. Do you think this will fit

With the way the hose is routed it will be tough to use the exhaust pipe plan. And the flexible line is out as it sounds like it is really not that flexible. So I am going to buy two filler houses for the driver side. And cut one in half and twist it. It should work. Will keep you posted
