Doording wins the prize today. Honestly thought it wouldn't work, but looks like it's going to be perfect. 






Trying to figure out where everything is going to live. 



The plan is to have the foot and lift mechanism in the toolbox. The handle and main beam will sit on top of the headache rack. 





Going nowhere fast today, but I think I have the filler neck figured out. 


I added a spacer to the lower mount. Yes, that's a socket. I promise to find a real spacer at some point.




Then I cut out a bracket to hold the new rubber bushing. The bracket is a pressure fit, just enough to keep the nozzle from moving around. I can also pull it out with effort, so taking the bed off won't be impossible.
