I think they "might" fit a LWB. 100% sure they will NOT fit a SWB(I measured)

Tomrrow I am going to go measure my frame (77) 4x4. And I will need somone to measure their older frames. These need to be compared. I have a 85 Blazer tank mounted in mine that fits perfect. I can measure my daughters 72 Blazer. maybe someone has a book that tells the differences in the older and newer frames widths????

So what types (years and makes) of gas tanks can be used to fit under the truck of a SWB?
