Additional fuel tank
So I am taking the bed off my truck in the coming weeks and am looking to put in another fuel tank. My bed is set up for two fuel tanks but currently only has one installed. So far the biggest tank I've been able to find is a 45 gallon tank made for a bronco. I would like to know if there are any large me tanks available that won't break the bank, is there around a 60 gallon rear tank for these trucks. The weight isn't a problem as it rides better with more weight in the rear, but I don't want to put in a tool box tank. There are many times I have to take the regular toolbox out to make room for a heavy load. My truck is an 87 F250/350 idi.

The late Bob Gervais had a great thread on adding the 38 gallon tank to our generation of trucks.

Okay thanks, not to worried about mounting a spare tire because mine is too big to fit under there anyway, and I was reading that some people had swapped in a side tank from a super duty to get 29 gallons instead of the stock 19, is the front swap worth it if I am putting on the rear tank? Or will I have enough with the 38 gallon tank?
