I want to add auxiliary fuel tanks to my 2008 FJ Cruiser and 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-Road. Been looking at some fuel tanks from Summit Racing that fit the dimensions under the FJC; where the charcoal canister is (would relocate it). Anyone done that?
The Tacoma should be easier, especially if I swap out the OEM bed for the tray. I could possibly even use a simple rectangular tank.
I would have them set up as transfer tanks I think, with a pump to transfer the fuel to the stock gas tank when needed.
There are fuel tanks designed for other vehicles that would fit, and there are fuel cells that would fit. Some of the fuel cells are steel with a bladder inside. Thinking the good thing about the bladder is no rust to the cell walls and it can be replaced if needed. Fuel cells seem safer than fuel tanks.
I'm thinking something like this:
