Wouldn't that side fill need to be a little lower for bedfloor clearance? Or is that assuming you are leaving the side brackets where they are and not the additional 3/4"

Dave Boyd....
If I do the side fill on mine, have the side flange 3/4 higher so the tank fits flush, and take 1" off the bottom, would that change the pricing at all?

Also, any chance of me paying today or tomorrow to get mine produced as soon as you have time? I am ready for my tank as soon as I can get it.

Mine is carb setup...not EFI...

no, if you leave the brackets where they are, there is 3 3/4 from the top of tank to bottom of a steel bed floor. So the fill neck is 3" to the top...would leave you 3/4" to work the fill hose on the neck and get a clamp in there.

If you push the top of tank up flush to the cross sills, then yes the top of the side fill would be tight to the floor. Might need to lower the side fill overall height if Dave can do it. The steel bed cross members are 3" deep from what I measured.

Hey Dave, will you be holding any group buy or black friday opportunity this year? If so, I'd like to pre order mine now.

I know you are busy and get these requests all the time, so thanks for taking a minute to respond!
