Unfortunately they won't. Tank pickup and physical shape are vastly different between the two models.

I did got that ninja post lol didn't see it thanks. Oh well. Maybe a 50 gal Titan in the near future along with my 60 gal. What about a tank from a cclb? 2011+?

All good. A long bed tank won't fit the strap locations. I'm also not sure how close the transfer case would be. The Titan is the way to go for sure

We sell the titans as well. I had one in my last dually. Now that Titan makes the in bed poly tank I will be doing that from now on. I trade trucks way too often, and the dealer doesn't care what tanks in it so I lose out. For someone who keeps their truck the stock location tank is really nice. Don't loose any bed space with the under bed tank. Titan makes very quality stuff and you can't go wrong IMO.

I've been really considering a transfer flow combo tank. How big of a hole needs to be cut out of the bed? That's my only concern.

Where did you plumb the hose into? On my dually I just teed it into the vent tube on the filler neck... I might do the same on the 6.7 but wondered if theres a better spot? I have a 90gal L tank and I used a old 7.3 sd fuel pump on a toggle switch to fill the main tank up...

Just the size of the hose running down to the factory fuel neck
i havent plummed mine in, (hopefully today) but i think there is a grommet at the front of the bed you could just pop out and run the wiring and hoses thru. i would say tho if you were going to drill the hole would need to be about 1 inch or so, there is a vent hose, wires and a 3/8 fuel line that all need to go thru

every bit of this
the grommet idea did not work, my truck has a bed liner and it made the grommet impossibly to unstick from the bed so i drilled a couple 5/8 holes for the harness and the hose to fill the tank.
So far im about 75 percent done with the install. My tank came out of a 2003 truck and im not sure the controler will work with the signal from the tank, so i havent tapped into the fuel sending unit wires yet untill i find out, otherwise i might just hook the pump up to an upfitter switch untill i know it works for sure

My plan was to try to route the line through the bed grommet like you said, that's how I ran my nitrous line on the 6.4. Only thing I'd worry about with that idea is the hose possibly getting kinked over time if it's in a bad way. But I'm sure I could figure something out.
that was my other thought too as well, and i think it would actually rub the back of the cab a little bit. The hole in the bed seams to work well, i hid it under part of the tool box, pretty clean for the most part.
I ended up doing some reading last night and found that for people who buy a transferflow tank used the customer service is non existant on trying to get them to help you on the controller ect. Plus i also found out they want you to cut the fuel sending unit wiring and run it thru the controller, not splice but CUT it... wasnt really down with that, so i cut thier harness put in good deutsch connectors and wired it to the up fitter switch to fill the tank, im going to see about rigging up a timer that auto shuts off after 10 min or so so i dont overfill on accident
as a side note the tank plus 10 gal in the tank makes the ride much better LOL

Ok cool. Just makin sure.. same as what was on my dually... didnt know if you where trying to hide a splice or just went ahead and teed in near the filler neck.

yeah no big deal its pretty clean if it didnt have worm clamps someone that didnt know better wouldnt ever know.
Im working on a timer right no so it can only run for 10 min at a time as to not be accidently left on and over filled. Ill let everyone know what i find if they are interested

Cool
Yeah, a timer would be bad ass... Ive forgot a few times and look in the mirror to see fuel spraying down the side of my truck... I wired in a red led trailer light in the dash of the dually to make it easier to see that its still on...
