Does anyone make a custom-sized propane tank designed to fit on or under our trucks?? I have a shortbed crewcab, so I'm a little limited on room underneath and don't want to use up any more bed space as I'm about to install a toolbox/fuel tank combo up there. Also, I'll need a pretty good sized tank as I'm interested in the 'pane for towing not racing.

Thanks!!!

Very interesting, but how many galons/pounds is that size and where does it mount? Alos, how do you fill those things under the truck? Can a remote-fill kit beused on them?

Yes, with a short bed, you can fit the 10 x 23 Manchester tank in between the frame rails and a remote fill can be utilized, although sometimes you can still access the fill without it. It does make for a nice option, mount it on the frame, out near the trailer hitch, behind a flip down license plate.

Where on the frame does the 10x23 tank go?

Between the transfer case and the fuel tank. The size is about 6 gallons. Good forr around 600-800 miles of constant use.
