Yea, I think the LMC tank hangs down way to low for a lot of guy's on the board. I think you should do a search on gas tank threads. Good luck in what ever you decide! I'm one of the keep it in the CAB BUNCH

Re: rust in tank

I would try to find a radiator shop that would boil your tank out. I had one done for 45 dollars once. There's gotta be somebody on our forum that has a xtra tank in good shape.
