How about this that i found on Craiglist, good price and setup? Auxiliary/Transfer Fuel Tank/Toolbox Combination

Looks like i will need a fuel pump though. Which is ok because i have an new extra Walbro GSL392 pump and i can put it on a switch.

 

Hard to tell from the photo; however, I do not see a vent for the fuel. That 2” outlet is designed to mount a regular pump to transfer fuel into other vehicles. You might be able to rig it so that it would work. It looks rather “homemade” and who knows if the tank is baffled or not. Again, it’s your money but saving a few bucks here may end up costing you more in the end. The other issue is the height of the box. Is it going to ride above the rail and if so are you ok with that.

 

I have a 37 like the one from tractor supply.Have had it for 8 years.Took neck off my tank and brazed on a fitting and drilled hole in bottom of new tank and did same thing.Drilled hole in truck bed and added a gromet and ran a fuel line.It is gravity flow and never had a problem.

 

Thanks, That is what i am thinking of doing. I haven't decided yet, just checking craiglist everyday as i have been doing for almost a year now.

 

Where are you? I am in Indianapolis?

 

I've been saying this and doing this for over a million miles without any issues.

 

Stinson 108-1 Sweet! I have owned a few Stinsons and am thinking about getting one again. I prefer the -3 for the big tail.

As for the aux tank, my 99 F350 came with a 50 gal fuel tank/work box installed across the back. It has an electric pump with a switch on the dash.

Only draw back is forgetting the switch is on and running over the main tank.

It also uses up some room out of the bed in back. Prevents me from buying a slide in camper which I don't need any how.

The electric pump connects to the filler neck of the main fuel tank.
