Thanks for the tip, I'll have to find that. I don't really want to drain, drop, and reinstall the tank.

Not seeing the aux tube on the fuel pump. At least not on my 2002 e-350. Maybe it was for a later diesel.

Decided to redo the base of the cabinets in aluminum. The wood wasn't perfect and was going to require to much finish work.

The pics I’ve seen of the aux pickup have it in the center of the round fuel sender ‘plate’. I’ll see if I can spot a pic.

I think I know what your referring to now. Doesn't getting to that require dropping the tank? I thought I read that, but would be more than happy for that to be wrong.

Yes... likely dropping tank (or cutting hole through floor). I’ve got a newer tank to swap in sometime... really not looking forward to it. The last & only car tank I dropped went smoothly, so it likely won’t be that bad

Yes I don't think it'll be too bad, just time consuming. I'd want to pump out the diesel to drop it. I suppose I could just run it pretty low and then try it.

Decided the wood base on the cabinets wasn't perfect. Redid then in aluminum to match the rest. Decision time as well, I might redo the bed in aluminum as well.
Top part is aluminum as well but it's not pictured. The wood was just there to confirm the height was even.

That’s what I’ve done with other vehicles. If in doubt, carry a Jerry Can of fuel and drive it till you’re running on fumes.

That's what I'll need to do.

After ripping out the wood cabinet and building aluminum cabinets. I decided aluminum bed was in order. Goodbye bed prototype and in with aluminum. Still need to bolt it all together for a final time but it's cut and painted.
Still need additional carpet and cabinet doors. It's getting there.
While this was going on, prepped for fluid overhaul. Motor oil, transmission flush & oil, and coolant flush & refill. Replacing thermostat and various hoses for each.

Quite a project! Looking good.
What was wrong with the top donor van? Sportsmobile?
And why such a high temporary support for the pop top?
Keep up the good work!
