70-72 tank might LOOK the same but isn't
it bolts on from OUTSIDE the back of the cab and has more bolts too.
Check it out you might be able to adapt it for your use but it ain't the same.

65-70 use the same exact tank in the cab. Part number was D0TZ 9002-A. The only ones that were different were the later 68-70 with the Evap emmissions. You can get it from a F-100 thru 800, N series and T series as long as they're gas engines. 70-72 F-250-800 series gas used the same also. It's a 19.5 gal tank.

Not sure if I understand you, but here goes: A '65-thru '70 F-series gas tank (not diesel) will bolt right in, AND/OR a '70-'72 F250-800 gas tank?
Is this correct?
