Well I guess I have to say I have one also. And when I put it on I got one side tight but the other side the rubber squeezed out and leaked all over the place until I took it off and just zip tied the original rubber hose back on. I got more rubber seals but haven't installed it yet. I'm thinking the tank has to be drained totally with no chance of gas getting on the rubber seals because that lubes them and lets them squeeze out of the nut. I'll try it sometime when I'm low on gas and take the time to drain it completely

Mine was bought aftermarket and I think I have an extra one you can have for the cost of shipping. It was never used. If interested I will go out and measure it for you. Mine doesnt leak and it has been on for 3 years. P/M me.

Was that a 2" or 3" lift? With a 2", the crossover should fit because you don't modify it at all. The 3" lift (I have), you definitely need a longer crossover.
I've been contemplating assembling my own using a compression fitting. You can get stainless tubing, cut it to fit and wa-la.

If you decide to make one up, be sure to get the quick-disconnect fittings, should you ever need to remove the tank, no need to drain it to remove the crossover. I added these with braided fuel line a couple months ago. I used the line Naz-Man linked to above from JP. and no leakage issues at all. dpriest posted a link a while back check it out for more info.
