Default Fuel Filler Neck for '97 Flareside

Will this filler neck work for my '97 flareside?

http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e12052...TM:MOTORS:1123

I asked the seller the same question and this was their answer:

Most hoses that fit standard beds state they don't fit flareside, but I am not finding any options for the flareside bed. I read somewhere that this item could be cut down to fit, anyone else tried this?

Thanks

Jonny

Sounds like they arent sure either. I have seen them on ebay, pretty cheap and just make sure it says it will fit the flareside. Some have comparison charts listed with the auction and make sure it comes with a warranty where if it doesnt fit then you can get your money back

if it fits a long bed, then it won't work on a stepside. long beds and short fleet fuel fillers are longer than the step side. i would say no, it won't.

Thanks for the responses.

Anybody know of a place that has a filler neck for Flareside Rangers? I have found two places on the web, but they are both out of stock.
