Ok, i have an 85 4x4 fleetside that I change to a step side. to do this I have had to switch my tank from the driver side to the pass side. I had to also fab up a pcs for the inside of my step side fender for the filler cap to sit in as the old pcs was rotted out and you cant buy a new one anywhere. My question is what can I use for a fuel line hose and a vent line. I need to know what size line this is?? also any ideas of what I could use for this. i have looked everywhere....

I have one at work that the bed is off, when I get there I will measure the filler line and the vent hose inner dia. and let you know. Do you have any places that specialize in rubber hose? Around here we have delta rubber and capital rubber that have the sizes of these hoses ( I got them from capital rubber, just don't remember the size off top of my head ).
-
Update, the filler hose is 1 1/4" inner dia. and the vent hose is 5/8" inner dia., they are about 10 1/2" long. That is stock if you fab. something up the length would be differen't. Hope that helps.

Thank you very much, I will check to see if I can find a place that sells this stuff.

check with a boat manufacture or sales and get the fuel hose for them... Or build one out of exhaust tube.
