Sorry about the long delay...there has been quite a few complications along the way.
The truck is now running a pressure WVO system vs a vacuum system. I originally converted it using a typical vacuum system with 2 valves, but could not get it to stop sucking air into the lines. After weeks of frustration I ripped it apart and went to a pressure system using the mech. lift pump for both fuels.
Here are a few pictures of the veg system. If anyone is interested in the system please let me know...I have many hours research finding the proper metric/an fittings for the pump/filter housing. They are not the easiest to find.
Along the way I have had pretty much the entire front end rebuilt including a new steering box, and added a Luke's link to the track bar for added strength. The Luke's link is a rebuild kit to rebuild tie rods. It is actually pretty sweet. Instead of replacing the link in the future, all you need to do is add spacers and re-tighten.
Hopefully we can get to the fin stuff now...It's amazing how much actually needs to go into a vehicle just for basic preparation before all of the add-ons can come into play.
Next we will be focusing on a heavy duty rack, custom rear gate/tire mount to replace tailgate. I will also be fabricating a new VO tank to fit under the sleeping deck.
