I went with a frame rail pump. Figured they all go bad no matter where its mounted.

Best pump I've had yet was a frame pump. Still running on the truck I installed it on in 2006
However a good inline pump is several hundred dollars. Two in tank pumps are $80.
Bosch 044 is like $150 so yeah they are more pricey.
lol, my "hole in the floor pump access cover" consists of another bed floor cut 14x14 and screwed down. I always carry a drill for long trips but for short trip and the pump dies within 100 miles of my house I'm calling AA towing.
I had bad luck with those. Guess it's a choose your poison scenario....

Hopefully i'll be luckier. Lol. I do have the sump installed so it's gravity fed and doesn't have to pull fuel from the tank.
lets go to Prairie City Thursday
your truck going? I think I can make that work.
No, but going to placerville to pick up a cabover.
I heard @NorCal_Chris Is going to be out Saturday
damn! Would be cool to see Chris out there too. Let me see what I can do....
No worries about Thursday, I just figured it toss it out there but sat would be fun
None of the pics work, stupid photobucket. I can upload some though.
I uploaded some pics in my build album here https://ck5.com/forums/media/albums/build-progress.1157/
let me know if you need anything else specific.
He needs a psychologist...or at least just an adult.
no doubt
Nice pics! Truck sure looks and looks like works great. 
Anything you don`t like about all the recent work you did or changes to make?

Need to fix the exhaust with a tighter radius so there's additional driveshaft clearance and modify the tie-rod clamp so it doesn't slip. That's really the only two issues or changes I need to make at this point. oh and my kill switch isn't killing the power, no idea what's going on there. Lot's of other projects still on this list such as a skid plate, cage, suspension seats, harnesses, stereo, CB, front bumper, lighting etc. Good winter projects.....
We're going over to Prairie City to mess around on Saturday, should be fun.
