Here is what I used, not sure if it will clear a tank but it might. Some of the pics are a bit blurry.

Thanks. No, that's just how I put it together. It was a factory Big Block, A/C, Custom Longbed when I started. Built it on a nice shortbed frame with NOS and OEM stuff.

It is a Draw-Tite. We actually narrowed it to line up with the frame rails.
Don't know the model #.

Re: photo's of hidden hitch, installed..

I used the hitch from a Jeep Cherokee...With a couple of mods it can be converted to a class-4 10,000lb hitch...My tow vehicle (72 C/10) has a sport bumper with a spring loaded license plate I fabbed up using a spring loaded screen door hinge... Pics are here, https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater
