73 K20....crossmember time

At the back of the tank It's 8.5" from the bottom frame rail to the bottom of the bed with 1" body lift. It's 7.5" at the front of the tank. So you can pretty much have the tank halfway in the bed and be above the frame rails. Your k20 rails may be different though.

This is a 10" box for shits and grins

How does one fill said box with grins?
I understand how to get the sh!ts in there...
 
Are you gonna make it to Moab this year? Cutting it close

Unfortunately probably not. Im kicking myself for not making it but I did what I could. Building a totally knew truck took more time then I imagined but I havent cut corners so thats good.

My current, probably more realistic goal is king of the hammers this year. That should be easy money.

Did a little measuring on this today. My tank is roughly 11.5 inches tall at the biggest part. This should mean about 5 inches of it will end up in the bed I think.

31 gallon? Mine is 12.75" (figure 13.5" with the sender) or 14.5" including the inlet. But if yours in a 24 gallon that sounds about right.
 
One of the center bars. I just cut the other one so there's 2 that will be in the halo.

I need to push the cage back to make sure they clear the roof lines, then i can fully weld them in.

A pillar up next. Glad to be done with this project. I have a feeling I need to add to the A. I already planned on running a bar just over the dash to tie the two legs together.

I may add two angle pieces in the upper corner of that or maybe a center bar down to said dash bar.
