Gen 2 blazer tank in gen 1?
Has anyone put a 30+ gal tank out of a 73-91 blazer into a gen 1? Also anyone have a pic of the factory mounts for the stock tank. All my parts are missing.

Re: Gen 2 blazer tank in gen 1?
I thin it has been done, but the tank may hang too low under the frame, but under a 4x4 it should be fine, just make sure you get a tank from a carburated blazer/suburban (suburban tank will fit too)

Re: Gen 2 blazer tank in gen 1?
Apparently that is what I have. It in the K5 when I bought it. I dropped the tank to clean it out and it fits in there pretty good. I added some thick rubber strips on top where it hits the frame. That is probably the only place to really worry about. I will attach some pics as soon as I get a chance.

Re: Gen 2 blazer tank in gen 1?
The PO did this. Looks like a 30 gallon, the float and pickup assembly has 5 ports. 1 big to the filler, 1 to the filler vent, 1 going to the engine, 2 plugged up. The guys at the parts counter said this is what came in a mid 80's Suburban and Blazer. Anyway, the picture isn't great, but I am away form home and it is the only view that is already on my laptop. I can take a few more in a couple of days. Its hangs down some, but doesn't look like a big concern for moderate wheeling. I guess someone that is serious about rocks might have a problem with it. Damn the 'ol Critter looks pretty ratty from the back! needs a pipe bumber!
