HB tank
I need a tank$
|
I am messing with this issue right now as I found a great 78' bed with the rear fill door that I modified to fit on my 74' and would like nothing more than to dump the tank in the cab. I would be in.
|
Also remember, the Bronco II tanks fit between the rails. The rear crossmember must be moved back a little bit and some angle iron or whatever placed forward to mount some tank straps. It's a smaller tank, but not much smaller if any than the in cab tank. For me, I just wanted a bigger tank or I might have gone that route.

Will the Bronco II tank fit between the rails on the 74'? Not sure if your 77' is the narrow or wider ones.

Perfect, thanks. I see that BG has a 33 gallon Bronco II tank as an option on their site, I wonder if I can get that wedged in there. Got a class 4 hitch to deal with too. Thanks for the info.

Yep, mine also has the narrow frame rail. Here is a pic (courtesy of armstrongfordtrucks I think) that I had saved for reference showing a bronco II tank in a highboy.

The one in the pic is out of an 84 Bronco II. Here is a link to armstrongfordtrucks gallery pic and what he did.

If I remember right the STOCK BII tank was 23 gal - so even in stock form it's more capacity than the stock, in-cab tank on these things.

Now if I could come up with a good way to put in a saddle tanks of some sort on mine. I have an open fuel door on my bed. |
Anything more come of this? I got a quote yesterday for 2300 SS tank and 1500 Aluminum. Way out of my league. I might be going the cheaper route and getting a bronco II tank. Let me know if anything new has surfaced.

Dang - at that price I'd consider making another one of these for someone. As you said though - way outa most people's price range. I wouldn't pay that much! Heck, I'm too cheap to pay even $600 so I made my own & spent way too much time on it.
Almost done though! I'm currently messing with the fill neck. That is if I could ever get any time in the shop:o http://www.gofastbroncos.com/forum/d...le.php?id=9005 http://www.gofastbroncos.com/forum/d...le.php?id=8983 |
Ya i told them to keep the SS. I was not going to pay that much. 600 is also way to much for me. I am going to get one from a bronco II and go with that.
