my buddy told me the fuel filler hose is easy to extend...but idk does it rattle a lot when it just sits there inside the fuel door?

and thanks a lot man you have been a ton of help...the lift should look nice i just gotta get bigger tires! hahah

i would imagine you would have to extend the front fuel filler hose becaudse as Redneck said...tanks we both have will just be okay.

Yeah but why is that???? If the backs fine shouldnt the front be to?

The back isn't fine, he said you can't bolt it solid. Yes you have to extend the filler neck(s). Yes you have to cut the shroud. No most trucks will not need the steering shaft extended as the shaft slides upon itself so you don't get impaled by the shaft in an accident.

I've never heard mine rattle when I go down the road. Have fun fabricating some front bumper brackets though. I'm still in the process of making some. Just gotta get some time to do it. I'm gonna get a roll pan for the rear bumper. I had some money saved up for the roll pan and paint, then I blew all 400 of it on a 1991 ford escort gt for a work vehicle. 1/4 tank of gas in my truck a day going to work and back sucks. Lol.

It won't go that smooth because you're missing kit parts that take care of some of the difficulties.

ok i have allready done the body lift on my 95 you dont have to get a new lower radiator hose. you do need a steering extention. and all you have to do to the fuel hose is take it loose from the hanger under the bed. there is a L shaped bracket under the bed between the filler door and the tank. on the hose there is a clamp attached to the bracket. take it off. the radiator shroud needs to be dropped and cut so the trans coolant line can pass through. you can drop the shroud with some 3 inch flat steel put a hole 3 inches apart use stock hardware at the top and a bolt with the the head against the radiator and a nut on the other side. the steering extention you can get from skyjacker for pretty cheap. you also will probably want to lower the front bumper. you can make a bracket or buy one for the front bumper and you will have to notch the frame to make the bumper fit.

i put mine on a 4.9l which they say cant be done, lol

oh and a little trick on the fuel filler hoses. DONT UN-DO THEM FROM THE BEDSIDE just get the bed bolts off then have some help lifting up that side of the bed and stick the lift blocks under there. i've got dual tanks and didnt have one bit of problem doing it this way.
