2 door gas tank on 4 door?

As the title states, is it possible to put the rear gas tank of a 2 door blazer, in the rear of a 4 door blazer where the spare tire would be mounted. Without major modification?

By major modification I mean to the frame and underbody, cutting and/or welding major components.

Though the 2-door Blazer was never officially available in my home country, everytime I see some 4-door one with an extra fuel tank in the stock spare tyre location the rear stabilizer bar is removed for clearance.

packofqtips is an unknown quantity at this point

i did it on a bagged 4 door, it was pretty easy but it required some welding for brackets for the tank to sit against and for the straps that held it to the brackets tightly
