I'm getting ready to install my under bed gas tank, what is the best way to vent these tanks?

I mounted my vent up high, about midway up, between the inner and outer fender. My tank came with a vent top, the kind that have a ball inside that will stop gas from coming out in a roll over.

I did the same thing.

I used the check ball style vent fitting at the end of a hose that I put inside the passenger's side rear stake pocket.
