Our Poly Tank Solution

Upgrade Your Ride with Our Lightweight, Corrosion-Free Polyethylene Fuel Tanks!

If you're looking for a direct replacement for your heavy 1970s steel fuel tank, check out our customizable, polyethylene fuel tanks. These modern tanks are built to last—no more worries about corrosion, rust, dents, or clogged fuel tubes disrupting your drive. Using the same high-density thermoplastic that’s standard in today’s production vehicles, these tanks offer reliable performance for years to come.

Designed for Maximum Compatibility

We developed our tanks with a range of practical revisions, keeping them true to the original shape but enhancing them with unique design benefits. The result? You get a tank that not only looks like the original but allows for quick installation of the latest in-tank fuel pump modules and fuel gauge senders. Check out our FAQ page for more details on how we’ve fine-tuned these tanks.

Easy Installation, No Modifications Needed

Forget the hassles of fuel cells or universal tanks. Our tanks don’t require cutting or welding of the vehicle—just mount them with the original steel fuel tank bands and fuel filler tube. Installation is as straightforward as it gets, and you can even keep your spare tire well intact!

The Advantages Keep Adding Up:

  • Lightweight & Durable: Shed unnecessary weight while getting a tank that’s built tough.
  • Thick Wall Construction: Ensures durability and supports long-lasting performance.
  • Ethanol Resistant: Made to withstand modern fuels, including ethanol-blended gas.
  • Enhanced Baffle Wall: Prevents fuel slosh and promotes steady fuel delivery.

Even with these upgrades, our poly tanks maintain the look of the originals, with subtle tweaks that improve both functionality and overall vehicle flow.

Retrofit-Ready, No Fuss Setup

Unlike factory steel tanks, our poly tanks are designed for retrofit in-tank fuel pump use, with large, flat installation areas that allow for easy integration of modern fuel components. Here’s what makes it so simple:

  • Surface-Mount Installation: Install fuel pump hangers, pick-up assemblies, and fuel gauge senders without interference.
  • User-Friendly Customization: Mark, drill, and install—our tanks make customization simple. We recommend rubber gaskets (nitrile, neoprene, or viton) for secure, long-lasting seals.
