rear tank filler, please help!

Hey guys,
I just installed the rear gas tank and I'm trying to decide how and where to place the filler neck. I've seen a few behind the tail light and I really liked it. If anyone could please post some pictures I'm desperately needing ideas. I have a steal bed floor so wasn't wanting to put it in the middle of the bed. Thanks for any ideas and pictures provided.

-Nick

Some one just did this thread a couple weeks ago so you might do a search on it. Here's how I did mine

When I installed my under bed tank I had the some questions and decided to go this route. Not fancy, but quite functional if you still use the truck bed. Really a pretty easy install. Used parts from a early 90's Chev. Lumina Van.

I did mine almost exactly the same way. I use a marine type filler to keep the profile low, and water tight.But the location is almost exact.
