Looking good as always man. I look forward to the progress reports on it. Have you done the tank in the frame rails before? I've thought about the same thing but was unsure about the rectangle tubing vs round. We actually built some out of round pipe for a '51 Chevy truck and mounted them down the sides of the frame rails one time. Worked pretty good and didn't take up much space.

No, I don't think you'll have any issues at 150 psi and the 1/4" wall tubing.

All I can say is What a Build! Great fabrication skills, and what an imagination it takes to build a chassis practically from scratch and make it do what you want with the lowering and the truck body.

Makes mine look like a bone stocker!
