Speaking of Fuel Caps: Locking

I've been pondering ways to lock the cap (although I likely won't need to once I get the ambo box or other type of side skirting that will limit access).

I have seen a few locking caps with the proper thread and diameter, but they would require tacking a small lip inside the opening.


Anyone locking up their fuel (or keeping disgruntled hippies from dumping something into the tank)?

I just put a bio diesel sticker on the tank.
No body would steal your biodiesel or want to sabotage a fellow tree hugger.

I did that to my Dodge Mega Cab 4x4 and you would not believe the good vibes that come your way.

And here I've been telling them that I'm testing a new renewable fuel made from baby dolphin oil.

Your idea is better...

I bought a locking fuel cap from Those Military Guys (see the Classified section in the forums). Locking Fuel Cap for M939 and M35A3 Military Trucks. Is available in several colors.
Does not require welding, it has a toothed pawl that grips the inside of the filler neck when you tighten down the cap. Works great!

Third From Texas, I tend to use well-massaged baby seal oil, it's refined much better than that dolphin-grade stuff, better performance in the desert heat.

Moderator: The vendor is a Steel Soldier vendor. But if I posted in error, please correct me.
