Excursion Gas tank?

Has anyone put a Excursion gas tank in the back of a Supercb Superduty in place of the spare? That would be a neat swap.

It would be real cool if you could rig it up like the mid-90's F series, where you had dual tanks with the factory hardware.

It wont be hard to hook it up on a toggle switch to swap tanks. I have my axualliary tank hooked up this way. I even have a sending unit in the tank that reads on my factory gauge. I used an install kit from http://kshmarine.com It basicaly is a splitter valve. The kit was about 250. I found the same valve in a JC Whitney book just the other day for $75. Mine works great I have a 91 gal. tool box tank combo from rds. If any one is interested I can post the detailed instructions.
