measurement request

for those of you with heated shops

how thick is the gas tank?
not "tall"
not "wide"
what is the depth? from the back of the seat to the firewall, at the bottom where the tank is "thickest"


cheers!

Re: measurement request

i only asked because there are a set of Memphis Audio 10"s in a "truck box" on Craigslist. The owner measured the box and it's 9" deep at the bottom. Not sure it tapers enough to accomodate my Tahoe 2nd rows...
