Well, took a little escort parts getter trip today over near Paris, TN.
Had to go parts hunting at a boat JY. Picked this little jewel up, paid more than I wanted, less than a new one. Needs another bung welded in, the fill spout moved, and build a mount. All doable.
Brother Copperhead going to help me out with the tigging! Got a old bedframe laying around going to chop up for a mount.
24"x17"x10"=18 gals.
Fits right in the factory spot, level with the bottom of the frame. Will have to move the driver's side upper shock mountto in front of the axle.

Kind of sitting in the original spot. Yes, shock mount in the way.

Shock mount issue.

Even has a sending unit. Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't.

nice cell, if you are doing this as a designated trail rig, why do you need a fuel gauge?

seems to me that the sending unit (which should have a pump built in) would work with just 12v...

Now are you glad you test fitted that tank before we started cutting on it?
Good to see you guys,If you would have stayed a while longer I would have put you two clowns to work!
Got busy after you left.

Yes, oh Sensei!
And what would you have 2 clowns do? Get beat & stabbed?

Because I'm an old man with a poor memory & I'd like a gauge to tell my dumbass to stop at the pumps, when the aforementioned Sensei is not with me, before I run out & don't make it to the trail?

On a technical note concerning sending units;
They do work off of whatever voltage system they are designed for (there are some 6v systems) and they are not real conducive to interchange.
They are however designed & operate on a resistor system & develope/operate at different ohms. I'm not familiar with who uses what, but I do know that Ford & chevy are different. Also all the HDs I've worked on, some for certain years do not work with other years. It's hunt & peck, or test with ohm meter & specs chart to make fit.
As the float rises & falls it developes & transmits a different voltage to the gauge causing it to rise or fall in accordance with where the float is. If the 2 are not conducive to each other, you will get incorrect readings.
Contrary to what some of you TBers may think, I know more about all this shit than you think I do.

The manager is a real dick............One of these days Im gonna tell him to F,Off!.........Then maybe they will hire Uncle Limpy (jay) to run the store and you and I could install and recieve....!

 

[RangerSVT]

Sounds good, uncle Wimpy...I mean, Limpy, might be able to answer the phone and take messages, so he's worth about mininum wage (maybe), me and you, though, are highly skilled technicians, so our salary is worth a little more...Would I need to bring my toolbox?? If I do, we'd need to expand the store...I don't think I'd fit...

Call Uncle Whimpy/Limpy whatever you want. Just remember my A$$ is running the books and you clowns only put in 2 hrs the whole week!
ANDDDDD
YOU'RE PAY WILL REFLECT FROM THE BOSS!
Time AT work, does not mean TIME WORKING!! It's all how it's written up by the bookeeper (Uncle Whimpy/Limpy) who's sitting on his butt doing bookeeping, behind the desk!

And while you two clowns were Fing Off, I just sold an axle!!
And will get paid when I drive by the guys house & drop it off on my next trip to the family homestead in Alabama! It's 5 minutes!

No problem, we collect the cash for the outgoing merchandise anyways...so there is always the commision that comes out before the *Books* get it

Any store I been at the guy behind the contour and the cash register takes payment & issues receipts for sales & warranty. And, I know how you are about skimming the till, so I installed a camera.
Also customers don't pay without a receipt for returns or warranty.
