Info on auxilary diesel tanks

Been looking around for a diesel auxilary tank for my ruck. So far I'm leaning towards the RDS 37 gallon tank with gravity feed that will fit under a toolbox or future sled deck. Anybody have any recommendations on similar tanks or someone in Colorado or Utah that does custom tanks?
 
I did but they were a little pricey for the amount of extra fuel. Plus I'm building a platform or buying a sled deck so I won't be loosing much usable space putting the tank in the bed.
 
I put a 49 gallon L-shaped tank in the bed that fits under the bed rails. I installed the fuel valve off of a 80 chevy truck for the switch from tank to tank. The fuel is fed into the fuel vent by means of a y-shaped fitting. Drive down the road until you use about 1/4 of a tank from the main tank then just flip the switch and the aux tank will start feeding the main tank to fill it back up. Just watch the fuel gauge so that the main tank doesn't overflow. With the 2 tanks I can travel a very long time before refueling >>>>.
 
Here is a pic of the tank set up. Works great as we can role along ways before hunting for Diesel Fuel. Topper has a window on the side that flips up for easy access. Hope this helps >>>>.
