It moves it up out of the way, flat with the frame rails. It also moves it back more. The reason why I did it was becuase one I already got a dent in it, almost put a hole into it. Second is, I'm going to run Chevy 63" leaf springs. The center pin on the leafs is about 4-5 further back. This will strech my rear end an when flexing the diff would hit the tank in the stock spot.

 

Oh ok, the hole allows the tank to sit on the frame rail from the inside, I got it. Thanks.

 

Looking good I can't wait to see them as you go along and when it get's done.

 

I'll post a pic with the tank inside, tonight
