Thanks Craig....I saw your pics of the install of the tank in your original post....I just wondered how low the tank sets in your finished truck. I know others on the board have done the swap with a 3"-4" spacer between the frame & tank, and your install looks cleaner with the tank up against the frame & also seems to have more ground clearance. Do you have any issue filling the tank with the licence plate location fill with your install ? Any new pics would be helpful to me and others doing this swap...Again...great job on your truck !
