The fill hose, or the 1" vent hose. Or get the tank with EEC and plumb it back through that hole. Lots of options.

ECC is error correcting code.

EEC is evaporative emission controls.

EEC is a fancy way of saying it has a charcoal canister on a vent off the gas tank.

Well it came in with my bronco 3m gal tank too. It's a bit bigger I think I will have to smash sides to get in! 38 gallons. The Dorman paint looks better then the finish on the broncos spectra. But I'm not sure it will last as well.. Dorman part 576-035 they both have same warranty

Mine is a frankentruck.
It started life as a 78 (non high boy) but was in an accident. Somewhere along the lines, it was rebodied with a 75 cab and box. And now I have a 78 front end (grill/surround) to put on it. But the title will still say 75.

Does anyone know if auto ventshade ever made a 4pc stainless window visor kit for the 73-79? I have seen pictures of them installed but can't find a part number if they ever did make them.

I'm pretty sure any pictures you saw were just two front kits installed seeings how the rear doors are just front doors cut down and use the same glass I can't see why they shouldn't fit.
