    I spent a good part of Saturday trying to get my fuel filler assembly through the rubber grommet. Any hints? I tried putting the tube through the grommet then into the cab. I tried putting the grommet in then forcing the tube through it. There must be a trick I am missing. At least I hope there is...

    Thanks in advance.

    It's A BEE-Atch !

    I insert the grommet then spray it with aerosol silicone then wiggle the filler neck right into place , easy as pie .

    Not sure "easy as pie" is correct but I have used the method vwnate1 suggested.
