Not sure if these are OEM? Have one main and one aux gastank on my -73 Ranger. The rear cap have started leaking when I top the tank full
Is this rubberseal a part to buy or do I have to replace the whole cap? Rather not, that means I will have to replace both front and rear cap(trying to make it look clean).
that's aftermarket. your front tank should have a smooth rounded cap painted to match and your rear tank should have the flat cap with the raised ridge painted to match.
As far as the leaking goes they did that when they were new if they were too full.
I agree with 440 Sixpack on getting two new OEM caps. You’ve got a nice looking truck Swede in Norway and the OEM caps are way nicer than the after market caps.

Locking fuel caps were an option...when two were purchased as a kit, they were keyed alike.
NON vented fuel caps were only used with the Evaporative Emission (Evap/Em) system that required unleaded fuel.
You cannot use a vented cap in place of a non vented cap, because the Evap/Em fuel cap and filler tube are unique.
The Evap/Em non vented cap has 4 ears, 2 above, 2 below 180 degrees apart. The fuel filler tube has a restrictor inside that prevents a leaded gas station nozzle from fitting.
Back then there were two different sizes of gas station nozzles. The smaller in diameter nozzle would only fit into the Evap/Em filler tube.
I have a 66 and it uses a vented cap. Learned a long time ago to never fill the tank to the top unless you were going to drive some of it out right away. My rule is when it gets to 1/4 tank put 10gal in, and never park on a side hill with the tank on the low side.
