Fuel tank relocation options?
I have a cut down 68' SWB 2wd and a 4wd that are in the shop being built at the same time. I am kicking around the idea of getting the tanks out of the cabs.
I do not want to add a fuel door in the bedside, or cut a hole in the floor. So with those two being ruled out, what are my options?

Re: Fuel tank relocation options?
Also my 2wd is static dropped 4.5/5 and I will probably be doing another 1" drop in the rear once i am closer to driving it. How far below the frame rails do these tanks typically hang?

Re: Fuel tank relocation options?
You’re pretty limited. You need the filler hose to route somewhere. You could hide it behind a taillight. I have seen trucks that the taillight swings open to reveal filler. Look up c10 zl1.
I used a tank from tanks Inc. It is a tank for a late 50’s chevy. Not visable from rear. Holds 15 to 16 gallons. Hope this helps. Pete |
