Maybe I'm overthinking this, but have a few opinion questions about mounting my water tank.
I'm definitely going above the wheel well, so it's going to be about 18" off the floor built on a frame of 2x4 and 3/4" plywood. That part is easy. The question is on the dimensions of the tank.
It's a 20 gallon tank and I have the option of 32" long x 12" tall x 12" wide or 36" long x 16" tall x 8" wide.
While the 8" wide tank sounds great, and I'd gain a bit of floor space, I'm slightly afraid of mounting that as the base is going to be shorter than the height. I'm worried about stability and tipping. The 12" x 12" sounds, on the surface, to be a bit more stable.
Thoughts/opinions?
