    located in NW Missouri. Anybody have any ideas that have worked for them on a build like this would be great. I am currently going to 3 link it with a wishbone panhard. Bags probably over axle. Anybody think original fuel tank relocated to rear would work? Also planning on a tilt bed either straight back or to one side.

    I have my gas tank in the rear of my truck between the frame rails with a piece of 2x3 behind it. All I did was extend my lines and wires. Works great. If you run a wishbone you won't need a panhard bar
