A 16 gal. fuel cell from Summit mounted on a plate between the frame rails just in front of the hydraulic fluid resevoir. Found a fuel tank selector valve for non-fuel injected application. Maintained mechanical fuel pump. Used the same switch as my F150 tank selector. It switches the tank and the sending unit. Works great! I don't use the ash tray. Not even for spare change (don't have any) so I made a cardboard face and covered it with a piece of vinyl. No damage to the dash so I can always put the ash tray back. When the bed is down there's plenty of room to get the filler noz in there... Estimate increased range to well over 300 miles... http://picasaweb.google.com/orchidskip/AuxillaryFuelTank#
