Transfer tanks

Hey,

I'm not sure where this belongs, so if a Mod disapproves, please relocate it.

I'm looking for a solid, dependable combo set-up (I don't care if they're the same brand either) for a 6.0 F250 bed to fill up tractors and equipment. I need a 'L' shaped liquid transfer tank for farm diesel with the toolbox as well. The transfer tank needs to be electronic pump with the obvious hook-up for pump/filter/nozzle and it needs to be lockable.

I've been looking at Delta, UWS, DeeZee, etc but don't know much about it.

I'd prefer aluminum diamond plate as I'm sure the white painted steel tanks will rust after a couple bumps. If I can put together a franken-combo I wouldn't mind. It's for my company and just need a solid built, non-wallet breaking package here. Where should I look?

Your company may as well get ready to PONY up cause none of that type tank is cheap. Fromm $400 t0 $600 just for the square steel tanks aluminum is more add a couple hundred.

They can be ordered just about any parts supply, Farm supply will have the best price and will often have some instock. I have seen some at Lowes even.

Most steel tanks can last a good while if you keep mud from building up underneeth them.

I was thinking it'd cost me about $1200 out the door.

Any companies in particular I should be looking at? Any suppliers for the pump and handle?

So just look around and see who is offering what?

Is there a company that people like most like UWS, Dee Zee, Delta, etc?

Sorry not l- shaped but I bought this RDS Fuel Transfer Tank/Toolbox Combo with 8 GPM Pump — 91-Gal. Capacity, Model# 72855 | Auxiliary-Transfer Tank Toolbox Combos| Northern Tool + Equipment

And absolutely love it, it has an electric pump that comes with it, all ready to go, all I did was drill three holes bolt in the bed and fill it with fuel

you can find L tanks and pumps for super cheap (when compared to new) on craigslist. I have purchased two off craigslist with great results.
