So apologies to b-dog for highjacking this thread. I have an '02 Silverado dually long bed and am looking at in-bed auxiliary tanks. Pretty much had decided on the RDS 51 gal. fuel/toolbox, or the 60 gal. fuel/toolbox combo. Both are 19" tall according to specs. I measure 19-1/2" to top of side rails. Really want the toolbox option. Have been looking at hard tonneau covers but am undecided as the fuel tank needs to sit 1-1/2" from front bed rail to allow toolbox to open, and don't seem to see any covers that will work and still allow opening of toolbox. Also have fiver hitch in bed. Anybody have recommendations? Thx.
We have a 2015 CCSB and Access Vanish tonneau cover. We initially purchased the 60 gallon thinking we could make it work, but it couldn't be moved over enough not to interfere with the tonneau rails while leaving enough room for the valve and tubing on the other side. The 51 gallon model works fine. The lid doesn't open completely because of the tonneau rolled over it, but it does open sufficiently to get anything in and out of it that we store there. The storage is really quite minimal, being only 6" deep. Still, we use it for a socket set, a spare gallon of DEF, and some other fluids we don't need to access very often.
