Now you have two "drivers". A lot of good stuff been done to it. That isn't a bad thing. Totally worth what you paid. That is a Tanks Inc. gas tank. Just move the electric pump back and get a new rear metal fuel line (Inline will sell just that separately). Clear the crud out of the drain holes, that should prevent further rocker damage. The tires will work for now. I can't tell on the seats. The door panels look good to me. I say again...you scores.
This happens with all torque tube rear ends. An incorrect, but easy fix is to stick a piece of rubber fuel line over the threaded portion (behind the horseshoe). Cut it long so it hits before the horseshoe does.
Yeah, I have never seen that rubber band around a torque ball. Are you sure it isn't the old one that just stuck on when you pulled the retainer off? I admit the latest retainer I have changed is a 55.
I know one of the "professionals" work. He is terrible. Bob Beck will hopefully chime in, since he has more first hand knowledge on fixing the unfixable.
My two cents. Diamondback makes a better product and is a better company to deal with. I buy from them regularly for customers. I will still buy Coker bias ply tires which look better, are necessary for judging high-point cars, and last longer on cars not driven as often as they should.
Willie and I talked about it and we want to find a can which fits over the filer tube, then drill a proper size hole with a uni-bit. Maybe put a small vent hole in it. I am seriously on this. I came up with a few cans last night (burp) but then put em in recycling. Yay! Hippie card returns!!!
I actually will wrap a few layers of paper towels around the nozzle to catch the gas from the burp. I also pull the nozzle out so I can see when it is coming up the filler pipe. Just have to take your time.
Pretty much have to stick your face down and listen for when it is about to be full. That, combined with slowing way down when you think it is going to be full. Yes, both of these suggestions involve guesses. Totally normal, though.
