Fuel tank move
Say a person wanted to move the fuel tank to the spare tire location. Where would be a good place to start looking for a tank? Or would it be better to make your own? I would like to keep the full use of the tank ie level sender and evap. Are there any stock tanks that might be a good donor?

Having a tank built is pricey. I know your not around your Tahoe for a little while but, Take some measurements and start looking at some of the conversions for the older trucks like a 67-72 rear tank. You also may be able to get a general tank from summit and move the mounting tabs or do as I am and building a sort of cage for it to sit in.

why not leave the whole truck stock? thats what modding is all about!
but for me, its in the way for what i want to do. suspension/exhaust.
plus if i sit it behind the rear it would take my 52/48 weight distrubution to damn near 50/50 which is just a bonus.
