The aux tank held about 16 gallons and fit between the frame and the bed side in front of rear axle. Mine was on driver side but I had seen them on both sides. You might find one in a old bone yard. If hand a valve on floor between seat and door for tank selection and a switch/knob on dash to swithc the gauge amoug tanks. It was all OEM too. It was great om trips because I would burn the cab tank dry and you could hear it start to tin can when the fuel was gone and pump was sucking air and you could switch tanks and never miss a beat. -- ----------------- www.thesnoman.com |
