Anyone get any plastic fuel tanks from just gastanks? My front tank the lock tabs rotted so it leaks full and the rear just started leaking from under the strap, the shower head is messed up as it cuts out at 1/4 tank, so it was due. I went on there and could get 2 tanks for $321. Here's their site I looked up under "ford powerstroke".

Sounds like lots of bucks, I'm sure its a good product.
A couple years ago got some regular tanks from a salvage yard, they've been working good since, about $20 each, IIRC

my tanks have several sheet metal screws and washers to fix pin hole leaks, lol, I'm pretty cheap and won't replace them until there's no hope.

with the cost of fuel, I like my tanks to do what they're supposed to do. keep fuel in. :D

I dropped $40 worth or diesel when I discovered the first pin hole. since I took the rock catcher off and patched the bad spots I haven't had any issues. If I only had one tank I would have replaced it.
