Thanks man-likewise!
I’ve been chipping away at relocating the fuel tank under the bed. I bought the Tanks Inc side fill kit for this generation of truck, along with their fuel pick up kit and their universal fuel sender. Nothing really tricky about putting it all together. I welded a couple of nuts to a flat 1” wide piece of strap to make a pair of captured nut plates to bolt the tank up to the frame. For the fill I didn’t want to go through the bed floor so I made a pocket and used a cheap aluminum filler tube with sealed cap-hopefully it holds up. The tank kit came with a vent so hopefully I don’t have any problems there. Just need to run the new hard line and extend the gauge wiring and see how it works. Probably going to be a slow fill, but hopefully it doesn’t burp all over like the stock filler.
