if you mean what to put in the spare space, go with a couple of 12" subs and a cd changer:metal: if you mean for a gas tank just bolt one under the bed. sorry i dont have any pics because my truck is all apart right now.
good luck,
John

i am actually going to put my back rest part of my bench seat into that space. gives you alot more room to recline. and you can mold it in real nice.

I built a storage container out of MDF. It hols cd's, tool kit, chamois, extra fluids (oil, coolant) and whatever else I want.
I also built in a couple of 6 1/2" speakers to add to the sound of the radio.
I can snap a picture later if interested.

Seeing as they are bolted to the floor , and spot welded to the rear cab wall, I built over them.
