    Hello!

    I'm looking to install a high capacity fuel tank in my 2013 Tacoma. I found Long Range Automotive, a company out of Australia. That makes a tank for short bed Tacomas. I have a six foot bed. The manufacturer was unable to confirm if the tank would got on my truck, as they do not retail the long bed Tacoma in Australia.

    Can anybody here confirm whether it will work or not? Or, possibly suggest a different manufacturer for a similar product?

    Thank you!

    Welcome to TW! I would assume that a tank designed for a SB would fit the LB. The reverse might not be true though.

    Is your truck a double cab or access cab?

    Gotcha, mounting points are going to be different due to having a longer frame and will most likely need modification to fit.
