Writeup on the fuel nozzle...

 

Cool looking pump. I use a jiggler ciphen, the thing with the captive marble in it. F*** moving gas cans around.

 

Ok so I started with a flo n go max flo that I got off of Amazon

The hose wasn't quite long enough so I went and got some 1/2 in hose to extend the length out ( I need to cut it down some now it's too long ) also got some 1/2in plastic junctions and some tube clamps
Ended up with this

So I have 3 fuel tanks that I can use (2) 5gal tanks and (1) 6gal boat fuel tank.

I trimmed the fuel pick up tube so it would be just above the bottom of the 5 gal tanks and for the boat tank I just put it in at an angle.
All 3 will be mounted on the front side of the rack.
And to get flow started just push down on the black tab and give the handle a few priming pumps and then just hold it open. The flow is pretty good once it starts flowing. Now I just need to make some thing to hold the handle full open so I don't have to hold my hand on it.
5 gal

6 gal

Obviously there is enough slack to just leave the tanks all strapped down and just remove the caps and just insert the fuel pic up tube. All done and coiled up.



BIG THANKS TO AZTACOMA!!! Cause I got the idea from him

 

That is fucking sick...

 

Thanks still need to tweak it a bit but it def works good and I like that I can have pretty much another full tank of gas on the shell to extend my range by almost double

 

Nice write up. Super thorough. Yet another item to throw on the ever growing want/need list.

 

I kick myself for not ordering these when they were 25 and free shipping

 

Stick your gas cap in there. Works on gas station pumps to.

 

Ever find those pics of the Chainsaws brokendown with the bar and chains removed for storage?

 

Well still free shipping FYI
, I ordered another 3. So I will have a total of 6. Plus I got Otrattw switches and 3 switch holder for my center console next to my cup holder. Also got a national Luna single battery monitor.

I'll have to try it out and see how it stays

 

Like this?

I did the winch controls earlier. But just did the light switches 2 weeks ago.

 

Guys.. Yeti Group Buy in 5-7 days... 20% off any cooler.. Might wanna get on it if you want to buy a cooler one time and be done lol

 

Where? I need a new cooler for Moab.

 

Need more money!!! Haha

 

Gunna be broke. Hope it is free shipping

 

Bear proof.lol from what I read about them, best cooler in the market. Will keep ice for a week in direct sunlight.

 

With the Wet Okole GB, buying a bed rack, and future RTT GB I can't buy anything else right now... Haha

Much better quality, insulation, and durability basically.

 

The insulation quality is really the only reason I want one. So much better for when you're away from civilization for more than a few days.

 

I've seen a 75/65/45 qt up close, they are some pretty nice coolers i must admit. it'd be really sweet for a short (3-5) day trip and they are damn near indestructible..

 

Ya I hear ya. I found a guy to buy my bed rack just need to meet with him when I get back from fort Knox. And I'll be buying a ARE CX most likely. But with my tax return I can get the cooler
