LB7/LLY Filler Neck - One for Big Dipper

[Noreaster]

if this is the wrong place for this Mods please move

I asked you awhile ago on DP about the swapping the fuel fill on my 02 to a later fill or 4500 fill so I can use 1" nozzles.

I need to do that too....

LLY's and up have the big one. Ive looked at LB7's and im almost positive it just swaps over easy with no other issues.

I think one you had to change the whole thing(expensive) & another was just the fill(much cheaper)

Yes, LLY's have big ones.

Seriously, it would be nice if someone doing this could do a brief pic tutorial of it.

Ill take some pics when I do it, place with cheapest fuel around here has only 1" nozzles, I can't even get one click to stay without it kicking off.

IIRC the LLY was the expensive one cause you had to change everything & the 4500 for duallie beds were cheaper & only had to change just the filler neck.

Last I remember the part number I use was no more good. The easiest thing to do is get a VIN from and 2004.5 up truck and buy the fill neck. The hose that connects the neck to the tank were the same so you can use your existing one. I went to the highest point on the tank and added a bulkhead fitting. You would be fine with a regular fitting, I only use the bulkhead to gain as much room on the tank to remove all the air I could. I then used a 90* swivel to push lock to go to the new fill neck....both of these were -10. The only hard part was holding a cup inside the tank where I was drilling the hole to catch any debris that fell. Well worth the time at the pump......I have put in 27 gallons in on a trip.

We just had the tank out of that truck a few weeks ago, never thought of takin pictures. Another buddy has one, maybe I can talk him into doing it and taking some shots.

You could be right on this. IIRC I spent about 30 or so on the fill neck.

Here is the part umber I used. 15040338

If i remember there was a thread over on DP about how to modify the LB7 neck to accept the high volume nozzle. Only major part was adding a vent to the tank.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1937902#post1937902 Kinda slim instructions......

04.5 I think they changed to the big ones..... sure does suck watching the dollar counter using hi flows though! :banging:

 

[Noreaster]

Could I swap modules(#7 on the pic I posted) to a LLY to gain the vent & also not have to change the pickup line?
