I can make you a tank...I mean "liquid holder" :D to your 3 dim specs. it'll be out of 10 gauge and very tough. if you need a skid plate that can be done too :D
the wrangler tanks wear out fast in warm weather. I can make the tank for $90.

are you sure your still smart enough with your wisdom teeth out to perform such a task?:flipoff2: sounds like a deal. i need to get my axle moved back and i'll get you the measurements. thanks:beer:
I have had the 21 gallon tank for many years on my CJ-7 plus I have two five gallon gerry cans on the back.:skull:

cool...I may not have the wisdom but I ain't dumb I'm stupid duh :D
make sure you'll have clearance and won't hit the big ole 70 on the tank :D Or I could make the bottom out of 1/2" plate and it could be a bump stop LOL :D

Too bad it's going to leak like a beer swilling punk ass kid from Granite bay. :flipoff2:
Hey Phill can you Hook me up with something all custom like too? I need to figure something out. for my piece. I'm only looking for about 15 gals though. I'm not even going to try to get more than that in the little space I'm thinking. :flipoff2:
