Low 69 CST

I checked the pics on your blazer tank, & it looks to fit pretty nicely. I have been thinking about that poly tank for the longhorn, & was wondering how far below the rails it hangs?

Hey, sorry it took me forever to respond. It fits nicely now, but was a serious pain in the butt to put in. I'm thinking the tank hangs maybe 5 inches down past the bottom of the frame rail. I think i'm going home wednesday, so I will check it then and be sure to get back with you. But I know on my truck, the tank is not visable at all.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I dont really need an exact measure, if its 5-6" below the rails it wont cause any ground clearance problems & Im sure it wont show on my old lowrider I have looked at the fuel cells, but 16 gal is about all I can fit....... the last crossmember is quite a ways from the end of the frame & that wont go far @ 8mpg! The blazer tank looks like a nice way to go.....
