The gas tank is located directly over the rear axle. Its a metal tank on 98 cars, but is plastic on 99+ cars.

Those two bars you saw behind the axle are the frame connection crossmember (the level one) and the one that slopes from the passenger side top, down to the driver's side bottom of the axle, is called the panhard rod.
