The TZE number shows this is a GMC interior so the configuration will differ from
ours, which was a transmode outfitted by Coachman...but I can tell you what we ran
into when moving the tank.

Ours was orginally located under the sink area, on the drivers side. In the
process of remodeling (in 1986), we moved the tank further forward toward the
front of the coach to under the dinette bench, in order to free up some space for
drawers. The tank could NOT come out through outside opening; it could only be
moved or taken out from the inside.....we assume Coachman placed the tank and then
built the inside around it.

Don't know if this is of any help, but as Arch says "that's what we did..." ^_^
