HUTCH mod. Not Hitch. =)

Harpoon is gutting the filler neck for the tanks and adding a different breather tube.

Hutch mod is an in the tank mod that requires dropping the tanks or removing the bed where you rebuild the pickup and extend the return line to reduce air bubbles from getting into the pickup.
