I'm starting to install my spin-on fuel filters I bought. I did not want to use the factory copper line since I wanted a field repairable type of hose. I decided to use the Teflon PTFE with stainless steel wrap hose. I know it's pricey, but very durable and repairable. I could have just went with a "DOT" poly hose like most over the road riggs use and also our busses, but I wanted something that could take a hit, and very hard to cut through. I also changed the routing of the hoses. I never liked the fuel hose just under the radiator like it is. Here is some pictures of my water/fuel filter. I mounted it so that I could change the filter sitting on my "NAPA" roller stool . As you can see from the pictures, it's mounted on the frame of the bed just above the fuel tank.
I plan on keeping this rig for awhile, and pretty soon I won't be able to crawl all over and under this truck, so make it user friendly now !![Vacation Orcas Island 4-15 to 18-2014 103.jpg Vacation Orcas Island 4-15 to 18-2014 103.jpg](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/334/334380-40ea8be7e9f2ca7aafe4dcbc473433bb.jpg)
Next I plan on installing the primary and secondary fuel filters. I have also replaced all the poly hose on the return lines and fuel pump.![003.jpg 003.jpg](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/334/334388-0b9854a430c3bfe5381c6b76ab917382.jpg)
