RDS MFG INC Diesel Installation Kit

Works as it should! I dropped the entire tank to do a lift pump while I was doing this job. I cut the fill pipe about 3 inches shorter and used only one of the provided fuel rubber pipes. Really well provided kit here!

Got this for my 2018 Ram 3500, package came damaged and was taped together however the contents were not damaged, took about an hour or so to install, I took my time as I was in no hurry. I used the existing hose on the truck tank so I only had to make one cut, I used a hand hack saw to cut the fuel inlet pipe. Included hose clamps are kinda big but work, I wish the kit had a grommet for the bed, I had some so it was no big deal but for the price you would think the kit would come with one. Overall it was an easy install. The tooling on the part itself could be a bit more refined, some rough edges that I had to smooth down. I do feel its pricey for what you get.

I just finished installing the kit on my Ram. It wasn't as easy as I had originally thought, but then again, all projects never seem to be... If your able to operate a die grinder with a cut off wheel/sawzall, and basic hand tools you can get this done fairly easy. The hardest part is disconnecting the filler tube. Take your time, take deep breaths and make sure your test fitting and drilling in the right parts. The quality was there and I'm happy with my purchase.

It fits great on my 2024 Ram 3500 all parts are true to size and install went fine. Only had to modify 1 rubber coupler hose to shorten it little and wish this came with a rubber grommet/plug for the truck bed so the hose doesn’t scrap the drilled hole when looped thru the bed.

Cutting the fill tube was the worse part, but in the end works perfectly on 2017 Ram 2500. I put a couple of extra clamps on just to be safe and no leaks at all. Gravity feeds from 60 gallon tank in the bed of the truck. There is some anxiety on the forums over the "flapper" leaking in the capless fill tube, but I have had no issues. Works like a champ.

Easy to install. Slipped right on to factory fill tube. I sawed off about 5" at the end before it connects to the fuel tank hose. Took about 1 hour total, taking my time

This is the actualRDS kit. Be aware there are other kits Sold on Amazon that use the RDS part number in their description but those kits are not made by RDS. I installed this on a 2016 Ram dually. Note - you will also need a way to seal the fittings, do not use white Teflon tape. Diesel fuel or gasoline will wick thru the Teflon and your fittings will leak. I used ‘Permatex 80632 Thread Sealant with PTFE‘ to seal the threads and after 2 weeks all fittings are dry. After the install, I went to the gas station and put 10 gallons in my aux tank with the shutoff valve closed. After I was satisfied there were no leaks at the shutoff valve, I opened the valve and let the 10 gals gravity feed into my main tank. I kept an eye on it to make sure I had no leaks. It all worked out well.

Did exactly what I was concerned about, luckily I was on blacktop and could see it leaking, luckily I cought it before 45 gallons leaked out
