gas ank on 68 c10
I want to remove the gas tank behind the seat on my 68 c-10 and put one else where. I have been told a blazer or suburban gas tank could be placed under the bed. Has anyone tried this or have other ideas?

Lots of guys have done the blazer tank installs and kits are readily available. I used a tank from a 90 Jeep Wrangler that fit like a glove.

I have seen the tank kits for sale at various places but they dont include the fuel filler neck or tell you how its done .I like the idea of a Jeep Wrangler tank ,can you tell us more about your install as well as the location and how to install the fuel filler ?

I went with a CPP aluminum tank. It was a complete kit that included tank with hardware, fuel sender and cool looking flush mount filler tube that sits in the bed. I paid around $550.
