Yep, definitely was 2" fuel extension hose. I need to head up to the gas station and get some non-ethanol fuel now that you mention it. There are a couple of places with it around here.

Stock bed mount works for now although I am still perplexed on where and how to mount a 1x1" frame to put bed slats on. Does it mount to the bed sides or to the frame or both? Even a piece of plywood doesn't really have anywhere to be mounted as is. A problem for another day since I'm close to driveable as is and heck, who needs a bed...

ok, maybe I legally need a bed.
