I have a 1989 F-350 7.3 IDI 4x4 ex airforce ambulance. This truck came originally from Ford as a Chassis Cab. hence the chassis might be different as from a regular truck.
My truck has the forward and rear diesel tanks, front is metal, rear is plastic.
I had to take off the ambulance body, and replaced it with a flatbed.
The goal of my flatbed is to keep the center of gravity as low as possible, and the frame of the flatbed is from rectangular stock (I think you call that in USA?) since I calculated the strength of the flatbed, I can't compromise the frame by drilling big holes in there to pass the filler/filler hose through.
I did mount one of the original fillers under the frame, The result is; I can't fill it there, there is no flow towards the tank, the filler is too low.
Also I prefer not to have a filler on the side, so that if the deck is full with payload, I still can fill up.
I'll have to try if I can place some pic's here, that makes things more clear.
I'm open for all ideas! thanks for the help.
this is the rectangular stock I used This would be ideal, but is impossible due to loading/unloading Here you can see that there is no flow towards the tank if you mount the fillers under the frame Again no dieselflow towards the tank by this filler position The space I have under the deck filler mounted under the deck frame, this give big problems when you fill her up!
I need an alternative.
