The product may work, however.

Not all parts specified in the instructions were received. Any idiot can screw electricity into a rubber hose. For $75 I was expecting this RDS INSTALLATION KIT to come ready to install rather than being rebuilt by someone too lazy to pack parts. I even emailed the company right after the order confirmation to send the correct larger hose clamps as posted in other comments. After waiting months for an answer, all I can hear is the chirping of crickets. As a 15 year old commercial trader it's a…

Easy Installation - Garage and Store

First I want to thank everyone who answered my question, you were very helpful. Installing this kit on my 2007 Duramax took less than an hour. Seems the company turned to "too small" straps because the ones I got were big enough. It was an easy set up, I had enough room to use a hacksaw instead of a utility knife which eliminated some time when the price was about average for all sets so it's good that I recommend this set. It would be nice if they added a rubber grommet as you need it to…

Easy installation, good product but clamps are too small.

Easy to install, good quality fuel hose, thin grip aluminum shut off valve but should work. A small brass ball valve would be a nice addition. The supplied filler hose clamps were about a half inch smaller than my Chevy 08 3500HD with a 34 gallon tank, when fully open they would not slip over the fuel hose and when wrapped around the fuel hose the end of the strap would not reach the screw mechanism . Clamps were available, there were no problems with the assembly. The gravity line hose clamps…

Easy to install, works as advertised

installs in about an hour. The hardest part was cutting the 2" OEM filler tube. You need a sharp razor blade. I put a clear fuel filter in the back of the truck so I can see if it's clogged. Bought it at an auto parts store for $4. The included fuel line is 5/16". I use the tank I'm used to and have worked hard with gallons of white vinegar to clean it. The vinegar will remove the rust that was in the tank. The valve on the adapter plugs into the top of the truck's filler neck. You will need a…

Pros
  • nice touch
Cons
  • not bad
