I was working on installing the air tank in the place of the original under body spare tire when I read about a reasonable way to install a second fuel tank at poor man's aux fuel tank . It was a much cheaper way to add capacity without the major expense of the hard to find factory tank with computer controls. Instructions were enough for me to be confident I could replicate his attempts.
My measurements between the hitch and rear axle (leaving a 6" gap from the rear axle) were 40" wide, 10" -12" deep and 20" along the front/rear direction. A couple hours on the web searching tanks sizes and the ones used on the 83-95 Chev S10/S15 seemed to fit my requirements. It measured 31" wide, 19 3/4 front/rear and 11 inches deep. Capacity was 20 US gallons, enough for me.
This put the air project on immediate hold as I am now searching for a suitable tank on the island. Alternatively, I can import one but the small pieces can cause this to be a 6 month project. So I continue to look at locally available parts in garages and other places.
