Burb gas tank in truck
will a burb gas tank fit under the bed of a pickup truck?
i notice the aftermarket tanks made for burbs hold 5-10 more gallons of fuel compared to the aftermarket truck tanks (19-21 gallons)

Re: Burb gas tank in truck
My brother bolted one into his '68 C10 short fleet. I still have the tank if you want a picture of it. I think it is 25 gallons.
The one he got was an original out of a junkyard 'burb.

Re: Burb gas tank in truck
Mounts to the frame with metal straps but I have seen them mounted inside the frame with out straps with a little trimming of the lower frame rail..
