    I mounted mine to over the rear diff. in FRONT of the spare so I didn't have to get rid of the spare.

    I havent had a problem in over a year and a half. I run air bags in the rear so I dont have to worry about compression under loads in the bed. The picture with my hand is with the bags decompressed. It took a bit to get it mounted there but it is solid.

    Did you drill holes through the bed to mount the tank?
