Bigger tank

10 MPG and a 19 gallon tank, well, you guy's know how that goes

I need a bigger one, truck used to have dual tanks, but the auxiliary tank got ripped out and the exhaust is routed right were it used to sit. Does anyone make a bigger tank that is a direct replacement for the stock 19 gallon rear tank?

Part numbers would be great.

Sam

IIRC, JBG and others offer a 38-gallon tank.

'glad to help. Btw, consider adding a shield since it hangs really low. I mean, running over a flailing piece of lumber or a tire carcass on the highway could result in the unmentionable.

I was thinking about getting the larger tank too as i only have the one. But i do keep my spare tire under there and haven't decided if i want to move it to inside the box. So if you have one you will need that room for the tank .
