Default Lift pump and fuel filter delete

So i have had my airdog 150 on for about 7 months now and was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a kit to delete the stock lift pump (on the block) and the fuel filter???? It would make it look alot cleaner and have more room. I have seen them on schied diesels web site but it's not there any longer I am also gonna post this in the price quote sections...
Any info is appreciated thanks in advance
Josh

i think you can just remove the bolts etc that hold both in place, and do away with them.. theres no delete kit, just rip it all off...

I agree. Remove everything and use plastic bags to cover the electrical connectors. The only thing that may give your grief is the water in fuel sensor. It would only take a resistor to confuse the ECM though.

I did have to use a space for the intake plate from what I recall. the thickness of the removed part, been a while. lot cleaner and easier access to the sensors.

Hmmm, shorter bolts would be necessary for the intake plate where the fuel filter comes off. Good point.

No problem. If you have the time, would you take some pictures and do a little write up?

There is two bolts that you'll take out from the bracket for the factory block pump that are shorter and work perfect. I just did this last month. Removed the filter and factory lift bracket and all that. Just to save you some time finding bolts
