External Bed Tank -Quick connect/Removable.
Hello,
Would like to see any photos of quick connects for an external in bed tank that is all removable. I know about replacing the stock tank etc. but I don't think I want to do that right now. I'm pondering a setup that will fit below the bed rails that I can use with my diamond back cover but I want a complete removable system so I can still have the full use of my bed.
As all ways, thanks in advanced.

It depends on how you install your tank. If you end up using some rigid pipe, be sure to put a union in there so you can pull that apart. But if you are planning on removing this tank often then keep it simple! The RDS kit come with a valve that screws into the bottom of the aux tank, the valve has a barbed fitting for 5/16" fuel hose that comes with the kit. The 5/16" hose goes to a T that you cut into the existing fill hose of your vehicle.
When you want to remove the tank, simply loosen up the hose clamp for the 5/16 by the valve, pull hose off, and remove tank. Then I'd plug the hose so no contaminates get in it.
