One day when I get a posi that I can trust I want to borrow them just to see how much of a diff there is in 4hi vs 2wd. I have saw a truck before that had the bed cut for the pump they mad I nice cover for it and it really didnt look bad.

Why don't you just pull the bed, only like 6 bolts, a couple wire plugs a couple screws and about 20 minutes and lift the sucker right off.

Cause I need a few guys to do it, don't have any body here now. It is done, out, took about 45 min, now if I ever have to do it again, it will be simple, lets hope I don't.. I just cant figure out why the new pump started making noise like it did?????????????????????????:c onfused:

It works, pumps fuel to prime, under normal driving, just not under a hard load. If the inline was screwing up, it wasn't allowing enough flow, or causing a restriction to the intank, would that make it **** out, or work under PAR..??

Thanks John

you don't have to lift off the bed. just lift the driver side and put a jack stand between the bed and the wheel. it can be done solo.

I came close to the access door myself, just didn't have the time. I used a cherry picker with a nylon strap between the tiedowns and just lifted the front of the box.
Mine is a PITA because the battery is mounted in the front pass side of the box!
I'll be doing the door in the spring.
