    M920 - Passenger tank install, battery and air tank relocation

    Done. Had to drill 6 new frame holes. Only used 2 straps. One tank is mounted to the underside of the cab. Second is mounted inside the winch frame rail. Moved the exhaust back to the front of transfer case. Stack runs up and out even with the inner frame.

    M920 - Passenger tank install, battery and air tank relocation

    916 and 920 trucks have a lot more room above the fuel tanks for their air tanks compared to the 915. You can see the mounting line on the fender on top of the tank ve the dual air tanks mounting line on the passengers side fender. You may have to move one tank and recenter the other one on...

    Well as it lucks out. The fuel tank mounting straps and the battery box mount share the same bolt pattern. Minus the strap bolt hole. Can't believe someone was actually thinking on that one. I will try to get this done this week. Exhaust should be pretty easy really. You have 3 inches on...

    M920 - Passenger tank install, battery and air tank relocation

    Other idea. I probably won't stick with this but I thought about making a box on top if the winch platform to stand on with batteries in it. Looks like a 939 battery box would work and have the folding lid. I mean standing up 15in higher isn't a big deal. Put rubber matting on the grate...
