Gas tank relocation in a 1969 C30
I realize that there is a billion gas relocation threads, however I can't seem to find anything with regards to doing the rear gas relation in anything other then a C10. From pictures of member installation, the C10 rear frame seems a lot different than my C30. The main issue I am coming up against is I don't seem to have a large enough flat area to really get good mounting of the tank. Anyone have some insight into this?

Which wheel base is the truck? My 69 is 157'' and I went with a custom mid ship tank---47 gal (if my math is correct)

It started life as a step-side longhorn. However, it hasn't stayed that way, thus the reason I am wanting to relocate the gas tank to the rear, i.e. like the C10. The rear cross members are different though so looking for options (since I have already purchased a Boyd tank) of how to mount it.

I have a 69 C30 that I relocated the gas tank. It was a Blazer tank though and not a Boyds

C30 Frame is shaped like k10 and k20 trucks i used suburbon crossmembers and the tank outvoff about a 77 suburbon in the past
Tank mounts between the frame rails like it was designed You may need to remove stock crossmembers to allow tank to mount behind the rear diff |
