Hey guys, going to be doing a swap to remove the old in cab tank, and putting in a Blazer style in the old spare tire area. Have been researching things all ove th e net and have come to the conclusion that some people are really proud of their tanks, and other sell the exact same version. I plan on using my truck as a truck and would also like a bed fill. What I don't want is a bed fill smack dab in the center of where I will be throwing stuff. I have seen the marker light door, and I don't really dig that either. Any way I could do a bed fill but keep it close to the stake pocket steel on the left hand side?

Be careful which tank you get. I bought one of those poly "blazer tanks" and minor trimming was required, and as far as I was concerned, that meant chopping out the second to last bed cross member the width of the tank. I ended up getting a custom built alum. job from no limit eng.
