    Hey guys, I bought a 3 in body lift and had to put a gas filler tube extension. The extension leaks and I have to pump the gas really slow. Is there a better tube extension or a better way to seal it off besides hose clamps?

    First mistake....you bought a body lift...a 3'' one at that.

    Did you extend the vent pipe too??

    One of the may reasons a 3'' body lift it a terrible idea...

    Yeah I extended both, it came with everything to do it right. That's the only complaint out of my body lift. I have a body lift, then about 3 in suspension. But not a coil spacer lift bs. Anyway. I was thinking of getting a thinner hose that was more form fitting but still fuel resistant
