I hated loosing 5 gallon's but, i didn't won't to spend a extra $1000 when I stretch because I didn't have enough room ether.
 
just got back from my friend's machine shop (thank's joey). changed dana 60 lug's from 1/2 to 9/16 wapita...

When doing this did you ream out the holes bigger or just press out the 1/2's and then press in the 9/16?

I've read where some people say to do that, no need to ream out the hole bigger.
 
I had to drill thim to 39/64 which gave me 7000th press. I read were they will press in with out drilling to. only thing I can think off is the chevy hub has a bigger stud hole. The 9/16 studs I'm using the part # show's it's a chevy anyways.
 
just finished up installing my genright tank. i ganned 9 1/2" wich should be plenty even when i stretch it later on.
