I did the valve through the floor by removing a factory plug. The one I used handles the return line as well. Here is a link to it: https://www.groco.net/products/valves-seacocks/fuel-valves/fv-6-port-series
Jamestown Distributors had the best price when I was buying mine...
Reminds me I need...
Well I had to try starting her up is the cold without being plugged all night. It was almost 10am when I finally tried to start her. The batteries are group 30's that came with the truck and are 700 CCA. Biggest issue was the starter bendix was not happy in the colder temps. It didn't want to...
Update, I've been driving the truck more and more... I have surpassed 500 miles since getting her running again. It has been good to be able to do small changes and notice a difference instead of just repairing things! The sway bar bushings were a great addition. Adding to that, I recently...
Thanks Gary! I am happy with the stuff I got from MicTuning as well as Superbright LED's. The switch panel pieces ended up coming from both.
Yes, you need to visit both sections! Excellent knowledge in both of them!
Thanks again for the complements in the work I've done! Trying not to clutter...

Lights come on with the reverse lights. So far they are great for lighting things up!
I been putting some miles on her since getting...
A few things have been happening while trying to work around rain...some more stuff from ORD during the sale they had. I replaced the mushy rubber sway bar with urethane ones. The truck now turns before rolling! Well worth it. Right front was rubbing the pitman arm so a little adjustment helped...
Another project that I finally got back to was in the ashtray. It seems my original voltmeter died so it got me to finish this. I can now see the voltages on the 12v and the 24v side making sure everything is good. I know the original can be fixed but I went ahead and ordered a 24v VDO one to...
Well, CUCVRUS (Thank you!) was able to help me out with some of the final things that I needed for my second tank install. Much easier to have them in hand to figure out a plan of attack! Some cleaning and painting to do on some of it... I also Have had some rubbing issues on the draglink/...
Thanks for all the pointers! So far: Pump works, I flushed all the old diesel through the drain valve till I had fresh, Shut off valve is on and the filter is clean because I have good flow when the line is removed from the fuel valve, I even have fuel through the bleeder on the fuel valve. I...
