I bought a Delphi fuel pump off of RockAuto and installed it last weekend, it worked for about 15 minutes - just long enough to decide it was good and go ahead and reinstall the bed/bumper/lights only to have it not work when I went to go back home with the truck.
Ordered another Delphi off of Amazon, installed it last night and it was DOA, wouldn't do shit.
So ordered a pump from O'Reillys and boom fires right up and runs like a fuckin Swiss watch.
Put it all back together and drove it home tonight. Ridiculous that aftermarket parts have gotten so shitty, especially a name brand like Delphi.
I'll be warrantying all the shitty ones so not out any cash.
I also did some looking while I had the bed off, I think the floor paint was fubar like
taws697 said, when they torched the heat shield off. The piping just doesn't line up with where the paint damage is, but where they would have cut the shield off definitely does. So, now that it's back mobile I'm gonna drive it some and check the heat on the bed floor for a while, if it's good I'll just have the exhaust shop pay for the bed liner and move on. If not, they can redo the exhaust.
Wheels should be showing up soon, gonna order tires next week and have the windows tinted, add bed liner and a tonneau cover th,en we are good to go on this thing.
