Re: 62 GMC build
Tuckers in Las Vegas. They are a mail order company and so far they have what I need in stock.
A couple things I can think of...
Make note of the length of the filler neck before you disassemble it. The replacement hose I bought was quite a bit longer than the one it replaced. I pushed it farther down the neck of the fuel tank and pushed the other part farther into it to achieve the same length as original.
Assemble everything mentioned above before you install the tank in the vehicle. Then raise up the opposite end of the tank to get the fill assembly through the hole in the body. The hose clamps are difficult to reach when it is in position . That is why you want it close to the original length and already tightened.
I WD-40ed the grommet in the body to allow the fill tube to slide through easier.
This is what worked for me but it is the first one I have done so there might be better ways.
