fuel tank replacement

Does anyone know which fuel tanks from a Bronco will fit on a '87 F350 rear tank?
Thanks

Look at the sending unit hole in the top of the tank and make sure you get the same. There were only 2 sizes: ~2" and ~3", so they're easy to ID.

Thanks Steve,
I guess the next question is: Does anyone know the sending hole size of the '87 F series trucks? In particular the F350 w/460 and dual tanks. I'd like to have the new tank in hand when I pull the old one out. That way I can make the swap in one day.

Also, Does anyone have experience with the polypropylene replacement tanks?

Tony

The 460 is a queer bird - you should get an inspection mirror and check it to be sure.
