F250 Short Bed Adding Diesel Auxiliary Tank

I'm interested in adding an Auxiliary Tank to my short bed F250 and wondering what the largest tank you've installed without running into turning issues with the 5th wheel.
Thanks
  • I have a Ram 2500 CTD crewcab short bed. I put in a Better Built transfer tank that I bought on Amazon from Northern Tool. I bought there because I wanted a black one. You can get a white one from Tractor Supply. It is 36 gallons and is 42 1/4 wide x 17" high x 11" deep. I use a 6' siphon hose 3/4 ID. It works great . You don't need a transfer pump. It takes little room and fits under my cover. I have it secured with 2 heavy duty ratchet straps, holds it great. That way I can take it out if I need the room to carry anything.
