Just ordered the complete LMC 21 Gallon kit for bed mounting the fuel tank.

Question for those that installed the LMC 21 Gallon side fill kit in their Square Body trucks. (Not interested in other tank configurations as there are liable to be differences.)

Tank supposedly measures 13" deep. This is the exact same depth from the bed cross member to the bottom edge of the spare tire....the spare tire mount adding several inches for about 16" below the bottom of the bed cross member.

So......do ya really have to notch the bed cross member for the install of this particular tank? (I understand about taking out the spare tire crossmember.)

If so, is this notching of the bed cross member required in order to get the side fill pipe up and above the drivers side frame rail?



I've been other places but they wore me out!
