Since I can't search, can someone post pics of a Fuel Cell Install...
I remember Matt did this just like a month ago...anyone wanna link me to that thread? I'm trying to figure out how I would mount it...because on my truck, it's got like 3 crossbraces in the back, and they're WELDED into the frame. (Welded REALLY well.) So..thanks guys!

Long story short on how i did mine...
1. removed factory spare tire brace (riveted to frame). 2. measured really good for new 'cell. 3. built & installd new front brace made with/of c-channel alumnum. 4. installed cell. -Jeff |

Thanks for posting that. On my truck, aside from having the spare tire brace, I have ANOTHER brace that was used for my tow hitch. But from seeing yours, it gives me the idea to do it. Yours is the Summit 16 gallon right? (25x17x9)

I would putt my fuel cell in my bed like that, but I still need to use the truck as a TRUCK sometimes, therefore needing all the room I can get.
