I have a short leaf spring truck so space was limited. I could not find a tank that would maximize the space and not hang to low. I had a tank bent up and I welded it. The size I built was 18x27x8, it holds 15 us gallons. The tank cost 70 dollars to bend, 50 dollars for an adjustable 90 ohm sending unit, 40 dollars for powder coating. These are also canadian dollars. The steel was 12 gauge I put one baffle in it and a couple of 3/8 fittings. When I was done I plugged all the holes and put a pressure test on it and snooped the fittings.
This is the only way I found you can do this with out having a tank that hangs down 10 inches.
