So why do all the kits say not for use with diesels? Has anyone gone ahead with it anyway?

The only thing that may cause issues with a 6.2 is the filler neck extension size. I've never been able to confirm if this is true or not. The kit's say they don't work with diesels because the turbo interferes with the inner fender with a turbo 6.5l, not an issue with a 6.2.

How is the filler neck effected? The radiator is lifted with the body.
Doesn't sound like anything a BFH can't fix.
Fuel filler neck, not coolant lol.
Oh, I suppose that makes more sense. I had my mind on cooling since I've heard that the diesels tend to have an issue with it.
How would the fuel filler be any different that a gas truck? Either fuel, it's still going to need to be extended. It should be as simple as buying a section of hose from Rockauto in the correct diameter. I guess I'm not seeing the problem.... I don't own a diesel.
I suppose the vent tube would need to be replaced too.
Like I said, I've never confirmed it, but a few people have said the diesel trucks have a larger filler neck and the extension included in the kit doesn't fit. Like you said though, it's an easy fix.
