Steel bed floor height vs woodbed floor height
I have built a stainless steel gas tank with a side fill and I know it will clear a steel bed floor but I really like the wood look. The filler is little over 2" high. Thanks Michael

Re: Steel bed floor height vs woodbed floor height
Do you see the kick up of the frame above the wheels? As long as it is below that (it looks like it is in the pics) it will clear and as long as there is not a brace that crosses there (I'm pretty sure it doesn't) you're good.

Re: Steel bed floor height vs woodbed floor height
I wrote a response,but must have not hit "post". The bottom of a wood floor does sit closer to the frame,but I think by your pictures you'll be fine. Not sure about the filler,though. How did you plan to route that?

Re: Steel bed floor height vs woodbed floor height
If no one else can before then, I can measure mine for clearance tomorrow. I have her parked in the grass and it's poured all day. I have a wood stepside floor and a blazer tank with a neck in the same location and it clears fine.
