What are you guys using for the sending unit? I have been planning on doing this to my truck for the last seven years, but I don't drive it much.
I just hate the wasted space, that the stock gas tank takes up, behind the seats.

I have a 100 gallon tank, previously used for diesel oil, that I can convert. I would need to mount it across the bed.

I also picked up a 20 gallon aluminum tank that can sit across the front of the bed. The problem with these two tanks is, should I need to load up one of my bikes, the bike might have too much weight on the tailgate.

As for gas tank filler, personally, I like the behind the taillight filler.... So cool.
