I figure I could find one on marketplace from a part out or somethin. Shouldn't be too hard but it may be something I just live with.
Yes, the pieces sticking out of the side go under the seat.

Example of ridiculous price for them.

Oh come one... I wouldn't pay the 50-60 for a used one but a fresh new one I would.

The pull it your self yard would be less than $20. I pulled one for an extended cab and I think it was around $15 out the door. The extended cab is even longer than this. Suburban, Tahoe, Yukon, Yukon XL will all have the same piece as a crew cab. Not sure if its the same on the escalade but probably is on the avalanche too.

Unless the part out is near you the shipping is probably going to be high too... Just an FYI

I don't think this part is being knocked off yet so should be legit. No pictures always scares me though... It's like a mystery if your going to get the right part or not.

I think I had to do both sides on my truck and also the Trim panel for the B pillar on the driver side.

Meh the $18 or whatever to get a part with pictures is all good with me. I will survive although after dropping about $300 in the past few days on a new truck it does make me suspicious on if I really will survive lol


@1FastBrick You running a lift pump?

Not Yet... this is an interesting topic though...

So most of your fass and air dog pumps are not Flow through. So if it dies, your stranded unless you pull over and bypass the lines. Also your dumping alot fuel through the return line. Return lines can break and then your dumping it on the road..

I ether want to do a Kennedy inline pump or the fleece in tank pump. Both are flow through design in case the pump dies.

Ah have not thought of that good point. Kennedy is what I see a lot of people recommending.
My fuel filter has 38% life left so I was thinking about knocking two birds with one stone whenit comes time to replace it. What I don't get is why you have to cut the fill neck? I cannot find a solid answer to that.

@1FastBrick A lot of people like the FASS and airdog for the filtration but personally I think OEM filtration is fine. I just know a lift pump helps the CP3. What say you? That makes a better argument for the Kennedy especially

The fill neck get cut for the pressure return on some systems. they push about 15PSI through it.

The Kennedy single pushes 2 PSI and the Double pushes 4psi

Its a good idea to run one because the factory did not. So the Lift pump is always pulling a vacuum from the tank. The lift pump relieves that stress...


Kennedy explains it well on his site I don't believe you cut anything with his set up so you could always remove it if you wanted. No harm no foul.

On my truck I believe it had a pump at one point or some one had a different bed on it. Because the filler neck was cut and it looks like it had mounts for a 5th wheel but the bed has no holes for it.
