Re: fuel tank location

personally I would move the tank for safety reasons. you can keep the hole in the cab and use the existing part to make it look like there is a tank. just fix something on the inside to hold the filler neck and then block the tube off at the fill inlet so someone can't unknowingly try to fill from there. you could even knock a frost plug into the fill hole somehow. then block the bottom of the tube off with rubber hose and a plug just so there is no smell from residue on a hot day. install the tank under neath and use a remote filler. that way if someone buys the truck and wants the original tank it is still a viable option. keep all the hardware if you want or let the next owner worry about that if he decides he wants it back to original. stick a label on the fill plug to identify the no fill from here and also the new fill location.
