no point in modding the stock one to all hell, just make a a new one with a lower profile...i made one out of steel and mig welded it and used eastwodds gas tank restorer to seal all the pinhole leaks and coat the steel so it doesnt rust...eastwood kit was 45.00$ the metal all cut and bent to what i wanted was 60$ now i have a tank that fits in stock location and ill never have to worry about dragging on it cause it sits above my frame rail like 3"...i used the stock sending unit on it too, i just bent a "z" in the piece of metal that holds the pump tube to suck off the bottom of the tank cause the original tank was 3" taller...i ended up losing like 3 gallons overall but thats not much and i dint have to cut my fuel lines and worry about a leak. plus to having it where its at is you dont see a bunch of tubes going to a rear mounted cell and with that tank in stock location its way safer than a rear mounted cell especially as low as my truck is and driving it daily i wouldnt want to get rear ended and blow up
