Gas tank questions?
I have an 81 C-10 project that currently has one tank on the drivers side, can I remove that one altogether and put a tank in back between the frame rails? I will be lowering it with a 4.5 / 6 static drop with 20's in the future. Just curious if this can be done and if so, where can I buy a gas tank that would fit right there? Is this a common swap? Thanks in advance.

Re: Gas tank questions?
Suburban tank from rockauto.com. They come in 28, 32 and 40 gallon. Use the 28 gallon. The only problem with this swap is you can't run your exhaust out the back.
Search on here for build threads.

I've done some searching. Not finding much but maybe I'm not using the right search words.

Re: Gas tank questions?
Thanks bro! I just looked through your build and it's freakin' awesome! Great job ! I love the color.
Why can't I see the pics from the other link you gave me from 502SS's thread? I just see red X's ??? Maybe it's because I'm at work or something but I really want to see the pics he has on there showing how he hinged the tail light assembly since that is the way I plan on going with mine. Any help seeing them?? RIZ |

Re: Gas tank questions?
I'm thinking so too. I also got smart and sent 502SS a private message.
Thanks again. RIZ |
