Hello everyone. Can someone tell me if there are any problems with using an in bed fuel tank. I have a 84 F250 with a facet electric fuel pump. My main concern is will there be any problem with the fuel return being that it will be higher up.

No. If a pump has trouble lifting fuel as high as it is drawing from, it's not much of a pump. You should be just fine, good luck with it. What kind of tank are you planning on using? I have a 105 gal from a Mack that I plan on installing one day. Pictures!

You should be fine, but that is a good question that I had never thought of. The added height on the return leg would add well under a quarter psi additional pressure to pump, I'm certain the pressure lost in the fittings, elbows, and hose itself add more than that.
