I don't think so, the '99 and up tanks are different.

from what i know and correct me if im wrong the 99 and up tanks are plastic and the 98's have a metal tank and i think the 98 tank might be a little biger by a gallon or so.
i would think the area where the tank mounts would be the same on eather car.

The tanks are swappable but the pumps are different.

same size. but the 98's use a return style fuel system so you will need to convert it all over to the new tank.

the 98 tanks are smaller in size than 99+. We are stuck with 15.8 gallons max.
