      Fuel Sending Unit

      The unit came and was well packaged. No damage in shipping. It was a quality unit, but the fuel outlet was about 45 different than the original 1966 part I removed. That made plugging the electrical connector back on a bit challenging. Had to use a little Permatex to get the gasket to stay in place. About a two hour job for most.

      Looks like original

      Installed in my new tank, but once I got the tank installed it wouldn't line up with old fuel line. Had to bend to make it fit. Not sure if it is tank or sending unit, but it is in.

      Perfect fit and Best Price at Ecklers

      I bought the fuel tank last month because of the sale price. Then I found the sending unit on sale, so I ordered it too! Fit perfectly and fast shipping!

      Easy instae

      Great deal with the item I was looking to replace, but was going to save a few bucks so I could afford it. Luckily it went on sale just as I needed it, or was going to have to wait to purchase it. Awesome! I now have a functional fuel sender.

      Best aftermarket gas tank!

      I have got to say: this is the best aftermarket gas I have ever purchased. Not only did it come with sending unit and breather retaining rings AND gaskets (that actually fit!) Its painted as well! You will need to source a filler neck grommet, but that was to be expected. Best of all it as on sale! I saved like $75. I will definitely deffer to this company for all my future, fuel tank needs.

      ‘64 Thunderbird restoration

      Great quality and service as expected from Ecklers. I always know that when I need a part quickly it will be processed and shipped out quickly.

      Great quality for the price!

      No issues, fits perfectly and looks great quality! My strap bolts were rusted so I cut and replaced them instead of dealing with trying to get the nuts off, just get new bolts if you need them!

      Heavy steel design

      The straps were surprisingly heavy and built great. I wasn't sure what to expect with them. They should last a long time.

      Nice looking tank

      Installed but original lower filler neck didn't want to connect to upper filler neck. Had to loosen tank and slide it over as far as possible and still had to force the hose on. Was still about 1/2" off. Not sure if it's the tank design or location, but it is over as far as I can get it without putting a strap on the raised area of the tank.

      Excellent product! This was way better quality than I had expected.

      My project had a band new fuel tank on it, but when I hauled it home, it came loose and rolled on my trailer, denting the tank. I had to order a new one, this was way better than expected, I like it better than the previous one!
