Why carry a cam when you can hide it underneath and out of the way? That’s almost 50 gallons total. Even your engine could make it a waysOr a better gas can

Because it’s in a shitty spot, have to rely on a switch, pump etc, more shit to fail. Easier to carry a can in those rare occasions you actually need more than 31 gallons.
Youre just a ray of sunshine
Must have been during my hiatus... lolPainted it before Moab...
Nah nah, you cheap shotted me about not painting the roof.
So shut your dirty mouth!
Painted pretty longbeds for Moab. 
Propane ftw. 80 gallon in bed tank.
Nooo in bed tanks ever again
Even at 12 mpg, 31 gallons nets a range of 372 miles. That's being conservative on the MPG too. Most of where we went in Utah last year I could have gone on the tank alone and been fine. But Larry was playing pack mule for me and he carried 2 jerry cans of fuel for me. We ended up putting them in just to get the weight off of his bumper mid-way through a couple of the longer trails.
I figured 12 mpg for crawling at lower speeds, but if it's as low as 10mpg due to lots of low range running that still gives you 300 miles on a tank. That ain't too shabby. But still there is something to be said to have an extra 20 gallons out of harms way. Here's my thought how to use it in a fairly easy way. Leave the pump in the passenger side saddle. Run a new pressure line from the side tank back to the rear tank. Put the side tank pump on a switch/relay to use for fuel transfer from front to back. You could leave the switch for the fuel level senders so you can see when you got most of the fuel moved from the side to the rear tank. The engine will run off of the fuel pump in the rear tank. You just need to buy a little more fuel line to accommodate the transfer line.
Thats how it is now, just run it to the back tank instead of across
You might as well make 2 of everything so if I decide to go this route it will save me a lot of fab time.
Joking aside I think I’ll make a better inventory of what I have done and use and what I use going forward. Had several guys already ask lots of questions on the phone
Guess I need to do a better job filling in the blanks here
I know more about your doll house build.
So I cut this piece 11” wide by 12” long.
Big enough to reach all the fittings and hoses.
I cut it in the middle of the flats on the side to make it easier to reattach it. I’ve opted to bolt it back down instead of a hinge
Right now I’m just cleaning this up and starting the frame that I will weld to the bed. This will be supported on all 4 sides, then also sealed as I live in an area where the top of the tank would see moisture
