LMC rear gas tank install

[Dazzoman]

OK Stop ... !
I am not wanting to sacrifice my rear spare tire space for a new tank - right now Im running the original cab tank and it needs to be replaced ! My 67 Dodge truck had side mounted tanks and that was non sacrificial to spare tire space = perfect .
Why isn't anyone into that idea ?
Most of LMCs stuff is all about that rear tire area for their tanks .
What els is out there ?
Any ideas ?
Help !

Hey how about using an Ford Aerostar plastic gas tank and it should fit on the passenger side up near the cab inside frame so you can still have your spare tire area in tact plus the weight distribution would be optimal .
I haven't measured this but I own an Aerostar and had the tank out a few times . I will measure it up , if anyone is interested .
Of course going out on a limb is the Ford sender going to match the 66 Jimmy gauge ...?

The fill in bed is not an issue for me, this half ton will not be used for hauling anything when done. Just cruising and shows. My 64 chevy long bed had Two side mount tanks.
