Ok guys...04 pete 379 daycab. It only has 1 tank under the passenger so I want to add one on the driver side. Besides the tank what is needed?

I'd say a round one is your best bet.
-
Tank brackets, straps, fuel line, crossover just off the top of my head...
-
Are you in the SE ? I have some.

Yeah boxcar I'm in northwest florida

I am in East Central Georgia but not coming that way any time soon. They normally had a couple of choices in diameter and length. The frame is probably already drilled for the brackets. You probably have bigger concerns relocating batteries and such than installing the tank. Steps, brackets and caps are pricey. Might mount one tank farther back than the other like some newer emission Petes.

Yeah I have the tank already and there isn't a need to move anything there is a big area to put it
-
That's good just have to decide if you are going to old school a simple crossover line or put all that duel draw duel return crap on there. Simple answer, Grubby answered that. Just don't skip on the insulator pads or over tighten aluminum straps.
-
Yeah I want to do it the new way
-
I thank they work best if you keep all the lines the same length size and height. Some of those tees have check valves in them, set it up like the truck you got the tank from. Just take a few minutes and be sure there are no dirt dobber nests in anything including the air vents. Cheers
