If you haven't found anything yet, I can get you one.

Personally, I'd just get a steel tank. I know they can rust, but aluminum will corrode as well.

Busy all around. I was thinking of working on removing the box off my truck. That is all so far.

Sounds easy to me. Turn the truck on and back up towards a trash can or something like that. <----Chris's Quote.

Need scanner to test each one... Either all the sensors are bad or the module is bad. Not sure which is more expensive. One sensor bad for sure though....ripped it in half removing it from the bracket!

The bolts are a one time use bolt. They almost always have to be cut off. Then replaced along with the nutserts. Be sitting when you order them too...

I thought I read that at one time. Seems stupid to me, but I guess it is a way to get more $$$ from people that need to remove them.

Should I bring the can of Vaseline?????
