Re: Will these gas tanks fit

you need to contact the guy and find out if they came off of a long bed or a short bed to be sure... I have saddle tanks on my long bed, and they are about 9 inches from the rear fender well, so I cant be sure if they would or not...

The 16 gallon tanks are standard on all short bed (6.5 ft) trucks. the 20 gallon tanks are too long for them as they would interfere with the rear tires in the wheel well. So yes they would fit your truck.

That is correct, 16 gallon=SWB, 20 gallon=LWB.
