Topic: Gas tank turned sideways?

[MidgetMike]

Is anybody running thier gas tank side ways, or are there any adverse sloshing effects?

Yup, the tank in my 90 is turned sideways behind the axle and Ive had absolutely no issues at all.

I run an 11 gal spun alum tank and no issues as well in any position..

I have not had any problems with my tank turned sideways.

I took a Tacoma tank cut it down and then stuck it side ways, and its all good

Just don't get hit in the rear

I will try and keep mine right behind the cab maybe frenched into the bed?

I turned mine sideways right behind the cab. Seems to work real good

Mike Id like to see someone hit me hard enough to get to the tank.  Theres a good 8" between the 3 1/2" square tube that is welded to the frame and plated to hell and back.  The shackles mount to that tube and beings the springs are inboarded it really helps to protect the tank from rocks too.

Whitey, good point but look what happened to guywithuglyyota in the TDS pics thread, stupid drunk drivers
