MiNi Beast Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 i have a 23 gallon. was wondering if they had a 28-30 gallon size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 not that I've ever seen that were "for a Comanche". I'd imagine there are more generic tanks out there that might work. but even then I have my doubts. it's probably going to need to be a custom box. unless you want to do a fuel cell in the bed. or you can do what I do and carry 10 gallons in these stylish army cans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiNi Beast Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 hey yeah i need a spout for the one i have. thanks yeah i want to move the gas tank up into the box and was debating a fuel cell of bigger capacity for those longer road trips in the bush eh. living on the edge going in the middle of nowhere with a backwards gage thats couple gallons off and we'll say I'm tired of the gas can funnel fill up when i only need an extra 50 miles or 10 trail miles. ummm and my gas tank straps are rusty again so need another set soon.

Pete M Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 seems you just need a tape measure reading of where you want to put it and go find one that size I'd wager you could get a rather large amount of gas on board if you went with a straight-up rectangular tank. plus then you could have a fuel pump that's easily replaceable!

Limeyjeeper Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I think I read somewhere that you can get a 97 Dakota gas tank to fit. I think that is around 23 gals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neohic Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I built one years ago that utilized a stock fuel pump assembly in a square box behind the cab. Half was fuel and half was a toolbox. It was right around 30 gallons and used the factory fuel gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
