Default So I have been thinking,(fuel cell) I have came to

The conclusion that I am going to do away with the fuel tank, run a cell in the back of the truck..... So who is all running cells on there truck. I feel this should be a fairly easy conversion, I can run a big *** pump, won't have to worry about ever dropping the tank again..Not 100 percant but am 99.2% sure I am

I think I am going with a 20 gallon tank, or poss 2 12 gallons, so if i want to run the good **** in one I can simply fill that one up I don't want to pay the 500 for a 22-4 gallon tank. 20 should be plenty

if you ran two tanks, on each feed line coming from the tanks have a valve on each line then go in to a -8AN Y block and run that to your fpr and do the same process on your return that way your going back to the same tank you taking out of. just a thought

I had this same idea. put the tank where the spare tire was and have the added weight over the rear end and put a filler neck in the bed.

I have run a fuel cell in the bed for years.

It is nice not having the factory tank underneath the vehicle.

I wouldn't have it any other way.
