Honestly I don't know much on a short bed conversion setup, I've been piecing together multiple forums and posts just to get all the info for mine since no one really seemed to have everything in one post.

You can't make the tanks forward anyway without modding the body mount or tank or both and there's roughly only 6" of room available with 16g tanks and 64" springs just going off the #s but some people seemed to claim less so ill find out i guess. I would think that would definitely limit you with a short bed, the most common answer would be a suburban tank swap obviously or you can try inboarding the springs thats a semi common thing on offroad trucks ppl are doing on these but im not 100% sure why.. I do know people do it though.
