fuel line layout/pictures

[rojo23]

I am in the process of a frame off on a 75. I am getting ready to install new brake lines, and fuel lines. Does anyone have photos showing where they run their lines. I am going to be running an electric fuel pump, would it be ok to use rubber fuel line from the tank to the engine? thanks for any input

Mine came to me with rubber fuel line for the whole length, but that was a "qwik, get it going so we can go to Moab" thing and never intended to be long term or permanent.

Yes, it works. No, I would not suggest it. I'm in the middle of replacing it with nylon tube and "Push to Connect" fittings. Unless you use the "Emissions Barrier" type rubber fuel hose ($$) modern fuels are likely to cause flaps and embolisms in 'normal' rubber hose in just a few years.

This may help you some.This is the layout on the 67.I would go with plastic/ nylon or ss metal before rubber for the reason mentioned above.

fuel line routing

Another option is bc broncos fuel line clamps. They hold fuel line,brake line, and return line [if you ever go efi]. They are pretty slick. I used em on mine. I have efi so it was one stop shopping at bc broncos. used the clamps then ordered a roll of coiled material from summit and done . bc also has prebent fuel line pieces for an in line pump if you so choose. allkinds of options.

good luck.

I replaced my plastic fuel line with steel brake line from the local auto parts store. A couple of 60" pcs with a union to connect them. Makes it easy to bend them and locate them where you want them. They are held in place with adel clamps.

Ditto. And another benefit is it is cheap.
