I know I am a little late to this thread, but have you searched around for a complete late model gas tank from other vehicles that might swap in?
On my 79 fullsize cherokee, I took some measurements of the empty area behind the rear axle and went to the junkyard. I found a tank from a late model (I think 97-98) XJ cherokee fit almost perfectly. I measured out a skid plate for it (since I need it for offroad) and used that to mount it. I used existing hols in the rear frame crossmember and then used a peice of 1x1, 1/4wall square tubing and mounted that to the frame for the front.
Now I have a late model plastic tank with a built in efi pump. I found a aftermarket gauge that was super close to the ohm readings for the sender.
This allowed me to remove my long and crappy factory tank that ran down the drivers side frame rail. I hated running out of gas every time I hit the brakes when I was below 1/4 tank...lol (long coffin tank with the pickup at the rear)
