Hello Andy, truck is looking good. Was wondering if you could provide information on your gas filler and locking cap. I'm looking for the exact same thing..

I will see if I can find what I got when I get home today. Not real happy with the gas cap yet, plan on redoing it at some point. Just need to get this back together and running first. Just got my wiring harness, so that will be next. I did raise the bed cross members about 2" to keep everything under the bed and enough slope to fill correctly.

Fill tube is fine would like more of a flush cap setup. But that was cheap and easy.

I have this on my pickup that has a fill through cap. The hole it provides is too small to make it easy to remove an ordinary cap. If I were to go with something similar again I'd prefer it to have a larger opening so a regular locking cap could be used. For the truck I'm building now what you have would work for me..

Been trying to go over my orders online to find what I used, all I can find is the fuel cap is a Tridon and I think the one on the truck was the TFL225V.
