Relocate Gas Tank

[OrangeTahoeSS]

First Tahoe I See With Gas Tank Back There....

Anybody Know Anything About This?

 

[mudslinger96]

I believe all two doors have the tank in the rear

X2... 2 doors have the gas tank outback...

Yep my tanks in the back n all 2drs have em

Oooh! Nice! So Can I Find A 2Door Hoe At The Junk Yard Or Look For A Aftermarket Gas Tank & Make My 4Door Like This??

U'll have 2 remove ur spare tire gear underneath in the rear and ull need longer fuel lines, reroute or fab up a fuel neck, and extend the electrical wires for the fuel pump... And then ull have 2 mount some custom fuel tank strap retainers to hold it in place... Not impossible, but its only like a 12 or 15 gallon tank... If ur looking to reduce weight and balance out.ur ride this would be the way 2 go...

Perfect, Thanks Man! & Yes, That's Exactly What I Want To Do. Also Build A Nice Dual Exhaust! :thumbup:

Jist remember that the guard for the tank in the 2dr is heavy and sucks to remove or intsall.. yoy also have to relocate the filler to the back. Why not run dual tanks like a truck? Have a switch to change pumps

A Friend If Mine Owns A Fabrication Shop, Could Probably Make Our Own Cover.... Relocate The Fuel Filter?? Does It Have To Be A Certain Distance.. If I Were Not Building It As A Performance Truck That Would Be A Great Idea. But To Much Weight.

Not sure if its all burbs or sum... But I have seen a few with a rear tank... Not sure if they have both... Might b worth looking into...

I wouldn't waste my time moving it. There are better ways to get a performance gain.

You could just drive it with a 1/4 tank if you want to save weight at the drag strip or whatever.

I did mean filler like the filler necj where yoy put the gas in lol but if you run dual tanks then thatd be pretty cool but still would need to pop a new hole for gas to go in

^^^ hidden license plate gas cap..?

That would be cool. I was watching some show and homie did the rear license plate as a trunk popper. Pull one side and it opens. I need to get a burb or 2dr tank when I do my body drop.

You can use the same fuel door location. You just have to weld up a new pipe into a Y split right behind the cap, so you can fit the gas nozzle into either tank.

I try to find a picture tomorrow.

I kinda know what dylan is saying but i like one on each side like my 1 ton tow truck has

The License Plate One Would Be Cool! .... I Kinda Like How The Tank Looks In The Middle.. It'll Balance The Car Out More.. & I Don't Like The Way Both Exhaust Tubes Have To Be On One Side. I Want To Have A Dual Exhaust 1 Out Of Each Side Infront Of The Rear Wheels...

That is what I always wanted, but instead for less of a headache going to copy a NBS style here that his exhaust tips before rear wheel on a the driver's side with a Z-28 exhuast tip. **** and low clearence for us lowered folks!
