jr,
I installed a Drake tank in my '41 1/2 ton prior to setting the bed in place.
Afterward I discovered the Drake sending unit was no good so I decided to remove
the tank and rework the sending unit flange for a Ford s/u. The tank was trapped
by about 3/8". The 'kid' at Drake said this has never happened before and I must
not know what I am doing. I made an adapter .
I will drag this out a bit and tell you I did finally talk to Bob HIMSELF....he was
attentive and offered a merchandise certificate to me. Big difference between the
help and the MAN.
