Hey I took a look at your pics nice set-up.I have a question for ya.What can I do about the feed line the 2 fittings on it are sooo rusty they feel like they are gonna break when I try to losen them with line wrenches.I soaked them with pb blaster still no good. Any ideas? If I break the top one I will have to buy a new pump for the tank. If I break the bottom one its hard line all the way to the front. Thanks again

Hey man thanks alot
I am assuming once I get them loose they are barbed on both ends and you can extend them with rubber line?

Hey I was just looking a the one pic in your profile.
Looks like all you did was cut that line that is inbetween the 2 nuts then extended it.
If thats the case please let me know then I dont need to mess with the nuts Feel me?
Thanks again

using the stock tank will help with the smog issue, but if you want a fuel cell you need an electric fuel pump. The 6AN fittings will screw right in to the stock toyota fuel line threads. You can get the fittings anywhere. Also get a tank with a sending unit. Most are GM (0-90 ohm) so you can hook up the gauge.

not the best pic but it sits in the frame rails all the way around it, underneath is some 1x1 with a sheetmetal panel make so nothing punctures it, the 5 gal tank and fuel pump mounts directly in front of it before the notch, on one side of the fuel cell there is a valve bracket and the other side a compressor bracket. hope this helps, sorry bout the quality its from my cam phone like a year ago.
