Auxilary fuel tanks?

[epriev]

I found this Auxilary fuel tank. https://longrangeamerica.com/produc...allon-auxiliary-extended-long-range-fuel-tank

Does anyone gave any feedback on this company or tank?

I hate fuel anxiety on longer offroading trips and I would prefer not to carry jerry cans.

Thanks

Any reason why you need that much extra fuel and want to carry that much extra weight?

I spoke to an installer in Texas; he's put in several and hasn't had any returned with issues.

Didn't get it installed but they seem to do the job.

To go for a weekend or longer without back tracking to town for fuel. This jeep only gets about 250 miles at conservative highway speeds. I got about 100 miles on 2/3rd of a tank on Rim Rocker between Montrose and Moab.

Wonder what the total extra weight would be including the tank. 200 to 250 lbs?

88 lbs for the tank, 17-gal x 6lb/gallon - 190 lbs

Have done plenty of tanks from LRA. Mainly install them in Toyotas and the new Grenadier. They are a nice tank and they give you all the parts you need for the install. Instructions are not the greatest tho

A four gallon rotopax is $140.

Yea I'd throw a couple of these on before I'd spend $2800 on an aux tank. Put the extra cash towards something else.
