Pony up for a proper fuel cell, or swap to propane. That'd be the be safer ways to do what you're asking. OEM tanks in the back of vehicles make me nervous, I'm always afraid that they can drip fuel or leak in a off angle situation.

This is probably the way I'm going to do it. Some people have use the F150 tank, but you lose about half your capacity. Their are a few out there that have made their own fuel cell as well, like sceep.

There are a few Bronco's out there with raised tanks, but I don't have specific links. Search on www.fullsizebronco.com.
