I note that a few owners have change the fuel filler to a Jeep one.
But being over the other side of the pond i'm having trouble sourcing the parts.
So, I was wondering if theres a nice guy over there somewhere who could get me the bits and send them for a few beers?
Ideally i'd like a Diesel filler, as my 303 has been converted (which makes it all the harder to find), but i would settle for a Gas filler and modify it if i had to.

Re: Jeep fuel filler
Yeah. And what you are seeing, at least on the 303 I had, is a simple Ford utility-body part.
Nothing "Jeep" mixes with anything I have/had.

Re: Jeep fuel filler
I used a generic filler for mine, so I'm sure you can source something that would work from various European manufacturers as well.

Re: Jeep fuel filler
That was in 2003 I think, so no, I dont recall what it was. There are pics on my real4x4.com site somewhere, but not detailed. Its not going to just "bolt-on" anyway so anything similar will do just as well most likely. You'll need to make the main pipe and cut some major holes, carefully.

Re: Jeep fuel filler
On ebay in US, searching just "fuel filler" brings up a large number of choices. Since there are many options, I really don't know how to direct you. As an example, here is one that is plastic but made for a utility body--you would then select a neck that fits your application:

For diesel, you could go with something like this:
