How long have you had the truck? Did it fall out, or did someone take it out.

Now the fun begins. Replacement tanks are available, but the real question is, did they cut the fuel lines and the wiring harness. It'll take some hunting if you need fuel line and wiring repairs. I've seen some fuel line repair kits at Advance Auto Parts, and there should be some online too. Same goes for the wiring. Hopefully, you had theft insurance.

also need to make sure they didnt take the tank selector valve out and put the setup up for a single tank in there. i was at pull-a-part last weekend and there were 5 trucks with dual tanks there. i would get everything from the frame mount fuel pump back to the tank it self and bring it all home just to be safe. my guess would be $100 to $200 max at junk yard for EVERYTHING

90 has only the 2 pumps in the 2 tanks. that fuel pump is the same 90-91, changes again in 92. best to buy the fuel pump new, or you will be pulling the tank back down and replaceing it later, usually when the tank is full. believe me, I know that from experiance
