body tuck?
are you talking about a belly up? like a flat transfercase skid?

if that is the case, there are several companies that make flat tcase skids. 33 engineering, teraflex, nth* (when they were in business), claytonoffroad, skyjacker, etc.

basically require rear adjustable control arms, a sye/cv driveshaft combo, and usually a 1" BL.

a friend has a 3" BL and a flat metal plate as the TC plate.
when he makes his next TC service he will take a look if my 2" BL would be enough for that flat tranny plate.
you´ll need a modified exhaust when you install a belly-up plate.
and if you already have some lift you also need a SYE and CV driveshaft in the rear.

It all depends on how much money you want to spend on the tank. Gen Right makes some great tanks that can give you more clearance or allow you the room to move your axle back 5", however they are about $800. Nothing is going to flatten that area out back there unless you cut the floor and move it up or compeltely move it into the bed.
