Well I finally got some free time to get things done. I installed the kit two days ago, and am looking to see what difference there is. A few comments on the general installation and kit as a whole:
1) I'm a little leery on where the pump ***'y is mounted, might be easily removed by a road 'gator or some thing.
2) The instructions were very clear on how to do, but could have given more guidance on where to - e. g. run hose and wires to allow safer path to engine.
3) The wiring harness should have been longer and unterminated with the pieces included as loose parts. Wasn't enough wiring to place things where I felt they should go - putting the relay up out of water's way or better yet, inside the cab. In fairness, I'm kind of picky about how things function and fit as a systemas well as how they look when done.
4) Addin a 90 swivel/pushlock for the pump to engine port would make it easier to run the fuel line from tank to engine inside the framerail.
When I placed my order I was told that the wiring for the WIF sensor had been added to the harness by Mr. Ekstam personally. Sadly this was NOT the case.
The adage buyer beware still applies.
Got rid of one item on the to do list, added two more. Some days you just can't win :-laf
Now about those DSS kits... ... .
