Transfer tank install - thoughts?

I am considering installing a diesel fuel transfer tank in the bed of my 2011 F350. Thoughts on the install for direct connection to the truck? I’ve seen gravity feed tied into the fuel fill line or pumping. Any one method work better? Any suggestions on what NOT to do? I appreciate your assistance!

I had an RDS tank that I initially had gravity fed using the RDS filler neck install kit. It worked fine until it overflowed out of the fuel filler neck with big elevation changes. I put an inline carter pump on a switch and never had a problem again.

I wanted the maintain all the bed space, so I just installed a Titan 50 gallon replacement tank instead. Works fine, no issues but kind of pricey...
