My question is: Is there any other GM tanks that would work. I don't feel like spending a bunch of cash on a fancy factory fuel cell if I can get one from the auto wrecker. I have heard that one from a Blazer may work years???. Thanks: Ward

It should work if you get the brackets, and would leave your spare tire mount for the tire. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 19 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 19 | Thanks for the reply.. What years of Blazer tanks do you think would work. Ward
