Saddle tank as main tank

[71K20chevy]

Personally, if it were me, I'd rather have the in cab tank rather than the saddle tank. Reason for that is because the in cab tank has a small surface area to be hit in a side collision, whereas the saddle tank the whole thing is basically right there. Not to mention the in cab tank would be sitting up a little higher.

Obviously, the best way to do this would be like the newer trucks that have a tank inside the frame rails. But newer trucks have wider frames, so on our trucks it's pretty much impossible. Although I have heard people fitting older F#rd Ranger tanks in our frames.


Just my 2c.
