Talking Got the bed off!

Ok, so my fuel recently went bad so off came the bed.
So does anyone know where to get a cheap fuel pump? Cheapest I've found is $140.00
Here's a Picture, Sorry for the large size :/

why the heck did you pull the entire bed off? I would have pulled the tank itself... lot less headache... $140 for a fuel pump assembly is about right bro... airtex seem to last longer.

pulling the bed off is easier, especially with a full fuel tank. its only 8 bolts that hold the bed in. and relativity light with 2 strong guys.

STOP! while your bed is off fix that rust on the rear wheel well. Go up inside and fiberglass spray then buy undercoat spray ($12) and drown it. Id hate to see it Rot away. White daks are mr favorite

Hey guys, Thanks for all the replies.
So I really don't have any money to get the new pump yet so I did something today to pass the time.
I took the interior out.

Here's some pictures for you all to enjoy.
Sorry for the large size again :/

while you have the carpet out, re-route those amp wires!

I have mine running with the power seat wires. Down from the dahs, around the CTM, down the rocker panel, hop across to the hole in the carpet, under the seat slider, through the center console, and under the passenger seat (where the amp is).
