Saddle Tanks

Three years ago I bought a 7.3L 2000 F350 Lariat Crew Cab 4 x 4 LB Dually , it was a Florida truck and in excellent condition with only 127,000 miles on it. I use it to tow my 5th wheel toy hauler in the summer and it's stored in the winters.

One thing I remember, or at least think I do was heavy duty trucks like this were sometimes equipped with dual tanks with fill tubes on both sides and fuel transfer capability or tank switch capability. Did I imagine this or did it exist and if it did could I retrofit my truck with a similar arrangement.

Note: I'm not interested in putting an aux tank in the bed of the truck I'm just curious about the "saddle" tank solution.

TIA , Retreever

I have read that the rears are same as the front just from the opposite sides. So rear dr uses front passenger.

What you read is not true. In the picture below, The regulator with the long arm is for a front door and the other one is for the rear door.

I said off topic because of some cheesy brand trucks. Then someone posts a 2000 crew cab. Still off topic. These posts should be deleted or thread closed due to clutter. Is anyone in charge?

Yes the rear door regulators are different.

I agree. This is supposed to be only to support technical info related to the dentside crew, not be a "hey look at my _____ crewcab" thread.

So I picked up a decent set of door panels with the wood grain trim. But I can't find a rear set. Anyone know how rare the rears are?

Yeah that's my first body, A for effort to the builder. Be prepared for the next SuperBronco to be even better. I already intend to go four-link, 8.3 Cummins and air brakes with a similar tube subframe...all of the lessons learned on the F100 Viking build and all the details will make their way into the truck.
