Hey All, I finally broke down and purchased the nice Mo Co. billit covers to replace my polished ones on my 02' FLHT. Is this a simple changeout? I know I'll need the gasket kit from HD. Do I just follow the service manual or are there some tricks you guys can pass along? I guess the tank comes completely off? I plan on replacing the the fuel crossover hose with HD's braided one and adding thier nicer tank hardware in the process. Thanks in advance! Eric

 

Install one of these on your fuel line....no more mess the next time you pull your tank

The service manual is a necessity IMO. It gives you the torque specs and pictures as well as spelling out the procedure. H-D makes a gasket set which covers the job. You will need to remove the rocker arms to change the bottom halves of the covers.
