Re: LMC rear gas tank install
Pictures as promised. Orange County Truck and Car shop. You Will have to re-bend the support brackets for them to work right.

Re: LMC rear gas tank install 1966 GMC 3/4 ton
OK Stop ... !
I am not wanting to sacrifice my rear spare tire space for a new tank - right now Im running the original cab tank and it needs to be replaced ! My 67 Dodge truck had side mounted tanks and that was non sacrificial to spare tire space = perfect . Why isn't anyone into that idea ? Most of LMCs stuff is all about that rear tire area for their tanks . What els is out there ? Any ideas ? Help ! |

Re: LMC rear gas tank install
Hey how about using an Ford Aerostar plastic gas tank and it should fit on the passenger side up near the cab inside frame so you can still have your spare tire area in tact plus the weight distribution would be optimal .
I haven't measured this but I own an Aerostar and had the tank out a few times . I will measure it up , if anyone is interested . Of course going out on a limb is the Ford sender going to match the 66 Jimmy gauge ...? Dazz man |

Re: LMC rear gas tank install
The fill in bed is not an issue for me, this half ton will not be used for hauling anything when done. Just cruising and shows. My 64 chevy long bed had Two side mount tanks.

Re: LMC rear gas tank install
I know I’m resurrecting an old thread, I’m hoping someone can help. I’m planning on a new fuel tank install in my 69 Suburban. I’ve read thru this thread multiple times and haven’t found the answer.
What did Apache63 do differently in the tank install to mount it higher to not have to notch frame for the filler. Thanks. Posted via Mobile Device |

I took my straps and flipped them inside out if that makes sense.
