Larger fuel tanks

RE: Larger fuel tanks
I've got a 90 gallon steel tank in the bed (looks like a tool box). I don't know what I'd do without it, especially when towing long distances. The only thing I would do different is get aluminum. I had to put a filter to catch rust before it goes into the stock fuel tank. It nows goes through 3 filters, tank filter, in-line filter for pump and stock filter. It solved my clogged filter issues, but I'd still go with aluminum.

RE: Larger fuel tanks
I have not confirmed it myself
but several posters have said that the last years of the Ramcharger
in 1992-1993 with the then-new Magnum 5.2V8
had a large rear tank with fitting for the correct MPFI fuel assembly,
and can be retro-fitted into modern Rams
if the spare tire stuff is removed

RE: Larger fuel tanks
I do have a 55 gallon tank that fits in the box, when I just have the cap and haul the Toy Hauler, but it has to come out for the truck camper to go in and that is where the desire for a larger fuel tank in stock locations comes from. I weigh 18500lbs truck,camper and trailer full of 3 atv's ( avearge about 12.5 mpg with this setup) and more fuel will get us in and most important back out to good fuel.
thanks for all the info

RE: Larger fuel tanks
Man I would love a 55 gallon fuel tank, but I cringe every time I see the price of filling up my 34... can't imagine right now a 55... that'd be roughly 200 bones to fill it up, but I would also get 880 miles in town as opposed to 544.. something to consider I suppose.
