If Not, At Least Purchase A New Tank For The Cab. 40 Years Is Long Enough For That Tank. Good Luck With Your Build.

I did this and wrote a FAQ up about relocating the tank to the rear. Prices have gone up from my original FAQ, but I just ordered another relocation kit from The Truck Shop out of Orange Ca, one week ago and it was 235 shipped to my door in Tx. Do not get the Poly tankas it will sag with the weight of the fuel and summertime heat. Stick to the metal tank. I think total you will spend about 250.00 including fuel lines, but it is the single best thing I ever did to any of my trucks. I highly recommend doing it! hope this helps some.
