Ram Fuel Fill Tube Kit
A fuel fill housing is included in box-off models and has
been designed for easy installation (external flangemounted) and to insure proper fuel tube fill angle of 37°.
Included in the kit are installation instructions, various fill
and vapor hoses that can be cut and assembled per bodyapplications, hose clamps, ground strap, and a hoseconnector. A DIESEL or GAS fuel label will also beincluded depending on application. The part numbers forthe kits are:Box Off Diesel: 52121252AA
NOTE: See page below for urea h ose modifications
Box Off Gas: 68312861AA
Chassis Cab: 5221693AD
Installation Suggestions
Always mount the fuel fill housing as high as
possible and route the fuel fill tube on acontinuous downward slope (approx. 37 ) toinsure good fuel fill quality.
Mount the fuel fill tube upper with the vent tube at
the 9:00, 12:00 or 3:00 position.
When routing the vent tube, make sure there are
no dips or sags. It should have a downward slope
from the “fuel filler tube upper” to the fuel tankvent nipple. Tie strap it to prevent any sags that
may accumulate fuel in the hose.
Always connect the ground strap from the fuel fill
upper to the frame. This is a must! If the groundstrap is not attached Electro static build up could
occur during refueling.
When Mounting the Fuel Filler and Hose Assembly
directly to the Frame with Self Supporting
Structure as typically used. On a Dump Body, it isrecommended to use a minimum of 2” Angle or 2”
Square Tube for structure.
Attention: When installing Aux fuel fill hardware,or various body hardware, you must not trap
debris, or water around the filler neck, fuel pumpmodule, or rollover valve. Failure to do so can
result in contaminated fuel leading to engine
damage or performance loss.
Ensure that the upfitter installed body, orcomponents, do not trap water or debris on the topof tank or around fuel filler inlet. Be aware of, andprevent attached components that may bedirecting, or trapping, water or debris on fuel tankinlets or top surface.

The fuel filler kit contains braided protective sleeves tohelp protect the fuel filler hose. If the braided protective
sleeve must be cut to a shorter size, use a hot-knife orequivalent to cut the sleeve. This hot-knife process melts
the ends of the nylon stand together preventing the sleevefrom unraveling. If a hot-knife is not available, use atiestrap on the end that is cut to ensure the protective
sleeve does not come unraveled.

Body Mount Guidelines for Ram (2500/3500)
The following section shows suggested guidelines for
Body Mounts for Ram 2500/3500 applications.
Caution:Use of proper safety equipment isrecommended when performing any modification oralterations.
These guidelines apply to second stage manufacturers
who mount a body to the Ram Pickup Truck. This applies
to trucks which have been ordered from the factory withthe box deleted or those where the factory installed box isremoved after delivery.
The mounting location brackets on the chassis that areused for the pickup bed mounting should be utilized for
installing the new body. On the short bed there are
six mounting location brackets and on the long bed
there are eight.
Grade 10.9 M12 Fasteners (or equivalent) should be
used. Torque to 60 + ft-lbs.
With the body in position the gap between the bodymounting points and the chassis mounting brackets
should be minimized to assure that there is no
distortion of the chassis mounting brackets when thebody mounting fasteners are torqued to specification.
Metal spacers are recommended in cases where thegap exceeds 2 mm.
Since the guidelines might not be appropriate for every
application of a body installation, following the guidelines
listed above does not eliminate the responsibility of thesecond stage manufacturers to certify to compliance toFMVSS and CMVSS standards.
The final stage manufacturer who installs a second unit
body on the chassis is responsible for compliance with(1)23(3)(4)(3)
FMVSS/CMVSS 204 , 208 , 212 , 214,219 , and(3)301
Federal Regulations.
Questions regarding
compliance with FMVSS/CMVSS regulations should bedirected to your legal counsel, the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, or Transport Canada.
If the final stage manufacturer modifies any portion ofthe fuel system, they assume the full system
responsibility.

2013 and Newer Ram 2500/3500 Diesel Box-off Urea Filler Relocation
Obtain Ram Chassis Cab Urea filler neck p/n 68101174AA
Remove the fill & vent hoses from the assembly, carefully not to damage the swedge
ribs on the quick connect and the urea filler cup.

Fabricate a bracket to hold the urea filler to meet the attachment requirements below.
Position the urea filler 30° from vertical. The vertical height between the urea tank inlet
port and the urea filler cap need to be at least 10 inches. The small diameterrecirculation vent port must be positioned between 9 & 3 o’clock.
Replace the factory equipped pickup truck urea hoses with commercially available
Tygon tubing.
Insert quick connects into both the filler & vent Tygon hose, tighten the hose to thequick connects using the stainless steel clamps. Connect the hoses to the urea fill &vent lines on the truck at the frame box bracket

Route the hoses in an upward slope to the mounted urea filler, careful not to leave any
sumps in the hose route.
Slide the stainless steel hose clamps on the hoses and push the hoses onto the urea
filler.
Confirm that the hose flows smoothly downhill and that there are no kinks or sumps inthe hoses. Readjust if necessary and tighten the clamps.
Add some urea to the tank and check for leaks.
Install urea cap.
