Hose was replaced a few years ago, so is still good, but I dropped the leaking tank and had it cleaned, repaired and lined. Putting it back in today with floor jack to hold it in place and I pulled the filler neck and cap and the hose.
Can't find answer by searching, so here goes...do I install the tank and loosly snug the tank straps and then try to jam the rubber hose on from the top.outside? Or do I need to get the hose on the tank started somehow and then jack everything up forcing the hose onto the tank neck? I just don't want to get the tank mounted and then have to drop it again to get the hose on.

What's the super secret tip or trick?

I'll hang up and listen. ps, everything is stock, no modifications to this truck.
