That is awesome to see. I'm kind of jealous because I didn't get to have it on my Ranger. Please let us know the verified capacity after a fill up

I will do a few full to empty runs and average everything out. I'll keep updating this thread.

can we get a side shot to show the frame in relation to the tank?
Probably just as low as I showed initially 2 years ago. If you only have a leveling kit you will be disappointed.

We were able to get 3-4 gallons into this tank and then 34 gallons to fill it up. 37-38 gallons to full, we will find out how much of that is usable. 713 mile range on the DTE display. I've reset one of my trip odometers to see how accurate that is.

Did you go into ForScan and update the tank size?

How many times do we have to go over this? I have a lift. The same OME lift you had when you had the Ranger. I've smacked my skids on many occasions which means that a tank lower than the skids WILL be at risk of getting smacked. It's a valid concern. Stop with this asinine argument.

With all the stuff I did hit underneath the truck when OffRoad I never had to worry about the rear. If you do then maybe you have bad tire placement? Or perhaps should not be on that trail with the Ranger. From what I remember I never even hit the Transfer case Skid Plate and that includes doing the Rino Divide Trail here in Colorado. It was a difficult one and I can promise the Tank will survive it

This tank is SOLID! As far back as the tank sits, if you are hitting the tank you're going to have other issues.
