Aux Fuel Tanks...

**bigdaddydiesel** · 10-07-2008, 05:19 AM

Do you have one?

What size?

Is it a Toolbox Combo?

Any Problems?

Anyone that has one, have you had problems with clearance issues when pulling a gooseneck or fifthwheel?

And, Last but not least, anyone know of a good QUALITY transfer line set up offered to connect the Aux to the main factory tank???

Any comments or suggestions are welcome.

And thanks in advance for the help!!!

I don't have one, but I would LOVE to have one. I really want a tranny, but I think an Aux fuel tank is going to be my next investment. Could you imagine going 750-800 miles to a tank???

I want one of the ones that replace the stock with 42 or 50 gallons to keep my bed free. I think they're like 1200 bucks though.... yikes!

I am looking right now into a combo, tank/toolbox, I need the tool storage, but I am thinking of having the 100 gallon capacity tank in addition to the factory tank, the truck is going to be a dedicated hauling rig, I just want to try to connect it to the factory tank as well.
Yes, the extra mileage is what I am looking for, right now, loaded I have a range of between 250-300 miles depending on conditions, and I want to at least double that...

I forget who makes it Chris, but you might have seen it also, it transfers the fuel to your tank while your driving i think that would be beneficial.

Transfer Flow makes one that will put it in you tank while driving.

With the electronic controller, i think that would be the best, except if DOT caught ya.

I have one and I love it. I need to get it installed on the new truck one of these days. I had it plumbed into the factory tank but I just had a ball valve that I opened by hand to transfer fuel into the tank. It is a 79 gal tank and tool box combo.

We have a transfer flow 100gal in bed tank in our tow rig. It dose not interfere with our goose neck enclosed trailer at all and there is still about 6ft of bed space left with the tail gate up. It has the auto fill option and the gauge is mounted where one of the lower storage compartments is. It keeps your stock gas gauge right on the money. So if it say full you have 132ish gallons if it says 1/4 tank you have about 33gal left. Its DOT approved and don't throw any codes on a 2005 LLY.

Makes long trips towing heavy way mo better!
