It will be way smaller than the original one, why don't you try to get a plastic one from JBG? or a junkyard?.

There's a picture of one in my garage. What happened to the skid plate?

The bronco has a 32 gallon tank, all the trucks, vans or motorhomes with a aft of rear axle tank have smaller tanks. So you'd first have to find a vehicle with two tanks, then you'd have to modify the filler neck and the support straps/skid plate. Then the gas gauge might not read correctly.
Solving a problem by not fixing the problem while creating more problems is not in my mind fixing the problem. |

Their all the same except the bronco is deeper. So just take a cut off wheel and slice off the bottom (with the rust) and do the same on a junkyard tank and then weld the good bottom on to your Bronco top.
Just kidding LOL. |

Welding tanks is a pain, I'm not that steady of a welder.. heh
Now brazing, that I could do nicely. p.s. Don't forget to wear a respirator or use a big fan, because the galvanizing is toxic as hell when you burn it. |
