How To Add a Fuel Tank To a Truck with 5th Wheel Hitch In Bed
Question:
Sir I have a 2017 Ram 2500 short bed with a BandW companion slider 5th wheel hitch looking for a system for additional fuel, Can you help

Expert Reply:
Yes, the best option we can offer you to add fuel capacity is with the DeeZee Truck Bed Auxiliary Tank part # DZ91752X which should fit in the space you have between the cab and 5th wheel hitch no problem as it is only 9" deep. I don't have any specific measurements on different hitch/truck combos but the above will work for most on the market today. The DeeZee Truck Bed Auxiliary Tank will provide up to an additional 38 gallons of extra fuel.
The DeeZee Combo Auxiliary Tank part # DZ92740X would be much too large for a truck bed with 5th wheel hitch as it is 18" deep.
