An idea a friend of mind made to me was to built a box to install tanks in and make them to look like tool boxes. Painted separate from the bed and maybe even a tool manufacter sticker on it to fool onlookers. Good luck and thank you for the offer to check my muffler fit. I will probably take off the cab here in a few weeks and will check it then. I do know it will be tight.

Dont think so huh? I made a fake tank that was 34 inches and 7 inches in diameter and it MIGHT fit... Who knows... I will find out in a few days. Thanks for the measurments.

I don't have any solution for hidding the tank, I'm not there yet on my project. Goodluck!

I ordered dual pack 400's and a 5 gallon tank. I MIGHT upgrade to another 5 gallon tank later... For what i want it for, if i can go up and down without waiting once, im fine with that...
