nice trucks man. i wish my garage was packed with show trucks. it sure would be nice to wake up one morning and think...hmmm....which truck should i take for a cruise? classic or modern, bench or buckets? i met a guy a scapen the coast that had 4 67-72 c10's all a tad different.......


now you just need an 80's chevy so you'll have every decade....wait, you do have an 80's clip, so i guess mission acomplished.

here you go maxxxy sorry about this taking so long bro i didn't know where to put this pics for you and i didnt want to hi jack your thread but this is how i decided to run my gas tank on my 77 that i body dropped i realized that a blazer or suburban tank wasn't gonna work on my truck since i had placed my panhard bar right behind the axle and the panhard bar is an pretty long and it seats on a angle and a fuel cell would had worked but i can use that money to put it somewhere else on the truck where people ar gonna see it and the gas tank will be under my bed floor anyway.... now i dont know if this would work for you since im not sure how high you gonna raise your bed floor and what your currently running behind the axle and this should be done before you built the frame to raise your bed floor....... i started by notching the frame right behind the axle 2 inches so the gas tank will sit 2 inches lower here are some pics....

[luifer76]

and i went ahead and capped and boxed it in with same pieces i cut .....

[luifer76]

and i also got rid of the bulky gas tank brackets and i made my self some straps to hold it in place..... here you go like i said im not sure if this is gonna work for you but im just sharing since you asked .....

Looks good.

How come your using an original style tanks, versus an aftermarket fuel cell?

thanks instead of buying the fuel cell im gonna be putting the money somewhere else on the truck where people can see it under the bed floor very few people gonna be able to see what im running for gas tank instead im gonna put it on the interior, sounds, and maybe engine there is a billet serpentine pulley set up i been wanting to get and so and so lol....

[Pro Performance]

I can definitely understand that. Very true, that most people won't see it under there.

[maxxxy]

Thanks for getting this for me, i really appreciate it. This is a really cool idea man. I never would've thought to do it like that. The only thing that might limit me is What you said, how much I raise my bed. But I have a question.
Does this setup require you to run a roll pan or could you still run a stock bumper?

I watched this build since day one but didn't have an account made so never commented on it. Absolutely amazing!!! All of your trucks are top notch. I have a question about your notch and bridge kit as well as the 4 link and panhard bar. They are from AVS right? What are your thoughts on the set up? I have an 82 that i am bagging and I have an AOL set up in the rear right now but Its not low enough for me... Oh and any more pictures of that dually??

thanks for the props bro.... and yeah the kit is from AVS and it works great for me the only thing i wish i had is a little more lift on the rear since im running bag over axle but on the other hand the rear on my truck is never up only when i see the cops lol

Any time, quality work deserves recognition. Sounds good, ill start saving my pennies for it then. The 73 isn't Zd is it? You just have cupped LCA's and drop spindles?
