Bagged with which gas tank?

[dwalt14]

Question for all of the air bagged guys. I have a 71 c10 that i am going to bag but am unsure of which gas tank to use. Want to put it under the bed. Any help would be appreciated

In regards to the above post with link.. Thank you.. I was planning to buy the LMC 21 gal kit for 250 bucks, but after reading the link above and going on ebay I scored a 31 gal 73 up tank brand new for 99.00 and a sending unit for 50.99.. Both are free shipping. Saved me 100 bucks and now I will have a +10 gal capacity.

I'm not trying to be a downer since that was a great price, but I don't know if I would have went with the extra gallons since you're going to bag it. I don't recall how far they hang below the frame compared to the stock sized blazer tanks, but I would personally want more ground clearance back there with a bagged ride. Maybe someone with this tank can show how far they drop to see if you're comfortable with it.

I went with a boyd's aluminum tank since they taper up towards the rear.

That's ok. I'm gonna raise my steel bed floor 3 inches when I convert it to short bed. And I also plan to fab up a tank shield out of 10 gauge for it as well..
