Quick gas tank question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I did a quick search, and couldn't find anything on this, so...

I know that for a frame mounted gas tank, we can use one from a Blazer, but my questions are:

Does a 73+ truck have a frame mounted tank?

If so, can it be used on a 67-72?

Hi welcome from a fellow toban. When I bought my 72 Jimmy it came with a brand new 73-81 behind axle style tank, I asked on here if it would fit and apparently they will. However I would like to use a correct 69-72 tank for mine so I have the 73-81 tank for sale

Check out http://www.pegcitycruzin.ca/modules.php?name=Forums there are a bunch of us 67-72 owners there in a local forum.

Thanks Gee_Emm,

That's exactly what I wanted to hear.

I am actually trying to save up some money to buy a 73+ c10 with a decent v8 in it, and I am just making a list of things to strip off it.

Thanks for the link as well!
