Fuel Filler Neck and Lemans Gas Cap

In order to maintain the stock filler and vent tube here is what I did. First I modified the neck by cutting it and incorporating a Jeep filler hose pn# 5357970 that has a 1” ID and a 90*elbow at one end.
I had a fellow forum member fabricate some aluminum I purchased off eBay to create a mount/spacers. I also sold the new style Lemans gas cap and picked up an old style one. While few will be using a tank with this neck, if you are, this combination seems to have worked out pretty good with a nice unkinked shot to the tank.

78-86 CJ with 15 gal tank
OMIX-ADA 17740.03 replaces 5357970
Sometimes sold with both the fill and vent hose I have seen the fill for less than $10 on ebay.
I came up with this hose by googling 1" fuel filler hose. I was surprised how easy the search was and how nice it all fit.
