Looking for anyone who has a slip tank with a truckboss deck. If there is anyone I'd love some pics on how you plumbed it, fill line, etc.
Thanks in advance

Also my plan to leave it in year round, where did you find the RDS kit? Lookin at em now and looks like that would be the easiest way to plumb it in

I ran my fill pipe and pump right through the deck, so i didnt have to mess with getting up to open trap doors etc to fuel up. I typically am filling it weekly. Carry an additional 340l. Went with the pump set up vs plumping in because its less work switching truck to truck every couple of years. Have been using my set up since 2006 works awesome.

Thanks guys, I think I'm gonna have to cut a trap door, will be interesting to figure out a way to get the fill neck to work. My ramp goes all the way to the front of the box, so will likely have to have it below the ramp and keep a piece of piping to use as a funnel when I want to fill it. No big deal I guess. Thanks for the help though, can't wait to get more than 500-600 kms outta a tank haha

Yur ramp at front the first run should start 12 inch back so there plenty of room for the filler neck just take your time and measure properly haha i measured about 5 times old lady was about to rage

My tank is 1/4" aluminum full width and about 12" tall. Holds 160l. I shortened the legs on my stf deck so it sits right on top.

I've got a Carter pump tied into my filler neck but only use it when I'm travelling long distances. The rest of the time it just slowly fills on its own.

For fueling I cut out part of the deck and I get access by sliding the extension out if it's not out already. Works good for me for the past 6 years.

Just curious if you have the all aluminum truck boss? I'd be hesitant to cut a trap door into it because of the way the slides go inside the deck.
