so instead if dropping the tank in my convertible i was thinking about just putting an inline pump in... can that be done or will i still need to get at the sending unit (i know ill need to get to the wiring) also if i can do that what size pump should i get

 

i dont know if they make a pump that would suck fuel through another pump and if it did that in itself would doom the pump to a short life. to do it without getting air at the pump in the tank would be iffy, especially when fuel level goes down. sooo it would be best to take the rearend, exhaust and tank out and get er done right.

 

damn well i got some pumps at the shop but there for a ford explorer can i make one of those work

 

just do the trap door mod most ppl do. cut a square hole in the deck and itll all be right there. i personally wouldnt do it but tons of ppl do

 

cant i have a conv theres some metal that holds the top and the trunk lid

 

oh thats beat. just drop the rear. it's not that bad just have an extra set of hands. its only a handful of bolts and while its all out id take time to clean all the parts real good

 

You can still do it in a convert. It's at the very bottom of the trunk area, right in the middle, you need to cut about a 6-8 inch square hole in the middle and you can get it all from there. I haven't done it to my car but I've helped a friend do his convert.

 

FIRST the measurments, i did the hatch yesterday, it needs to be i THINK 7 wide thirteen deep, but check the sticky. Second id totally say go hatch. third you do not Have to take the axle and stuff out but it makes it soooooo much easier if you decide to drop.

 

Somewhere online there is a step by step for a rag top. I remember seeing the brace you guys are talking about and pictures of the hole that needs cut.

 

well i think ill just drop the tank i can do ujoints and clean up the rear pretty good but what about the ford pump i have the wiring can i just splice it into my car
