Oversize Gas Tank
I would like to increase my range, especially when hunting. Does anybody know of any manufacturers of larger gas tanks that would fit the Blazers? I looked under my truck, and there seems to be some room to go larger without affecting ground clearance.
I did see one at JC Whitneys, but the almost 600 dollar price tag seems a little obsene!

Both Aero Tank and Northwest Metal Products make 37-40gallon replacements, but they are expensive also.
The second generation Blazers ('73-'91) have 25gallon and 31gallon tanks. I've heard of people adapting these, but the filler neck must be moved from the passenger's side to the driver's side and a cross member may need to be removed for clearance. I'd like to hear anyone's experience with adapting one of these tanks. Last edited by badpeanut; 08-02-2004 at 06:38 PM. |
