Mounted the factory fuel pump

Thought I'd share how I mounted a factory fuel pump from a Jeep Grand Cherokee.

I made a sheetmetal box and welded it into the tank.

Cut out the threaded flange from a Dakota tank and bolted it down.

Shortened up the canister, and here it is.
Why would I want to do this? The factory canister has built in baffling so that the pump is always in fuel. Also, it has a gauge sending unit that I can use since my stock sending unit does not work. This pump I already had in my possession too. So it didn't cost me anything but time.
