thanks jim.
slow progress, got some time today because it was raining early and I couldnt get the 400sq ft of underlayment for the 41 cases of flooring we picked up yesterday.
we made a dump run yesterday too, I should have taken a picture of the flatbed loaded like the clampetts, literally teetering.
I shortened the filler neck, took 4 inches out of the rubber hose and 2.5 out of the metal tube. used a 3" holesaw on the bedside, looks good enough to me.
I also got the cab corners welded up and spritzed with paint.
unfortunately the rain didnt stick around, I will be back on the house tomorrow.
