vulcan draw tube

truck is down with the return fuel into fuel tank rusted through. diesel everywhere. anyway dealer wanted way too much so i called vulcan direct
and ordered the draw tube, fittings, filter, and line to run all the way to the
engine and back. this guy is top notch and had everything shipped next day
so i can get going. any advice on routing new lines, troubles encountered?
from the looks its seems straight forward but never hurts to ask. its on a 97
extended cab 12valve with the basic stuff to keep the isuzu ,ahem, i mean chevy and fords in line. i have to say it again this guy at vulcan performance went out of his way to make sure i had everything i needed to get my truck going again. thanks

You have selected a good replacement for the OEM draw tube. It installs easier than the OEM unit, just follow their instructions.

I agree Eric Is a top notch guy. As far as things to look out for - a rusted brake line that runs between the tank and frame-caused me to have to remove the tank a second time to do the brake line. Of course this happens when you choose Sunday to do a project and notice the line is rusty as you are re-installing the tank

Hope the link below works - a pictorial with some comments as you go - when I did mine.
