underbed gas tank
I'm looking to have my truck ready to drive by June 17th and the first thing i need to do is put in a new gas tank. My dad, brother, and I have looked on many sites for an underbed gas tank so that the tank isn't in the cab. If anyone has one or has bought one from a website please let me know. The only website I have found one on is brotherstrucks.com for 449.99. thanks

I bought my underbed tank from GMC Paul, I think there is a link to him from the board home page. It is a poly tank, came with tank, sending unit, J-bolts and mounting straps. Other attaching hardware I bought locally. Don't recall what the $ was but was very pleased with his customer service. Whenever I can I try to buy from board vendors who support this board. There are other suppliers I know but don't think they are linked from the home page.

I had a custom aluminum fuel cell made by board member fuelcellguy. I am super happy with it!! I think the price for a standard tank is $400 with hardware, maybe a bit cheaper.

Early Classic Enterprises sales a nice stainless truck kit for $629.00.
[I]Below is the specifications As you have come to expect, Early Classic offers the highest quality, American-made Custom Fuel Tanks on the market. These Heavyweights are constructed from 14 gauge stainless steel and are much less prone to tearing, cracking, and punctures than aluminum. A huge bonus is that these tanks have the option of accepting an in-tank fuel pump for fuel-injected applications, or run with a factory external pump. They feature internal baffling and include an electric sending unit and all necessary mounting hardware. The Pickup tanks (excluding the "Copperhead Style"), are 23 gallon capacity. The "Copperhead Style" tanks are 18 gallon capacity. The Suburban tank, being 27-gallon capacity, offers 50% more capacity than the factory Suburban unit. (There is an additional over-size shipping and handling charge of $10 per item.) |

I bought mine from a local vendor here called Dans Classics I only paid $250 for complete kit for the blazer tank which you can put in a truck. It is not poly it is a metal tank with thick metal straps very nice with sending unit. I don't know why anyone would pay more shipping is probably $40. If you need more info let me know.
