Gas tanks ???
hey boy's.i got here is a 1987 gmc 3/4 tonne 4x4.I put a 1987 454 V8 drive train in it out of a 1 tonne dualie.The 454 is carb and the 3/4 tonne had a fuel injected 350.So heres my question to ya's.As you may know the 3/4 tonne had the 2 tanks witch ran down each side of the truck.I want to eliminate the 2 tanks and go with a single tank.Either figure out a way to rear mount one or go with one in the box.If i have to go with the box choice will it stand up to the mud and off road abuse i built the truck for.any opinion will be great.Thanks

For serious off roading I would go with the bed mounted tank, if you mount it securely it will stand up under almost any conditions.
