Thanks KargoMaster.
Jfiscus: The Jeep is currently at my buddy's shop (same guy that I conned into welding my rear end). He is dropping the tank, cutting out the bad section, beefing the inside of the rear "frame rails" and adding 1/8" thick steel to the floor pan area. I bought a 4x8 sheet of 11 gauge (1/8") for Buford's "new" cab floor and there is plenty left to use on the Jeep. The tank will be back in it's stock location. I understand your idea, but I want the tank under the vehicle (not in it), and I want to keep the cargo floor area flat.
I am having him do a few other simple welding mods to it. I don't trust my own welding skills for anything important.
I figured it was about time I contribute something semi-useful to this site other than hawking junk in the for sale forum.
