Ok basicly got a fuel cell with about a 2 1/2" spout on the end for a hose to attach to. so i need somthing a little more plyable than the stock hose that runs from your gas tank to your fuel door. im relocating the door to the insede of the bed so i need something that i can bend easily but will still be reliable enough to hold gas.

There are certain kinds of hoses to use for gas lines. Just don't use a radiator hose...

They don't have flexible fuel hose that big. You are going to have to use metal tubing to get around everything and use straight hose to connect it all. Make sure to ground the metal hose to avoid static electricity.

search for fuel hose

not sure if they will sell small quantities to individuals or not. I deal with them through work.
