Now that is a gas tank. I really like that it does not mess with the clearance of the truck or spare tire.

This tank is awesome. Reminds me of the 46 gallon Transfer Flow tank I installed in my old Tundra. Loved that thing. Same concept and this one is is even bigger! Winning.

I am definitely following this add-on. How much does it weigh empty? Let us know how the calibration goes; as well as, the range and weight it adds to the truck.

I don't have anything big enough to weigh it, but SCD performance says its around 150lbs. Trying to lift it, sure feels like it. Things made of 2mm aluminised steel. Im assuming its going to lean a little bit so I'm getting bags installed with the tank to level it out when shes full. I'll see if the shop can weigh the factory tank once its removed for a weight comparison.

Does this take the factory fuel pump assembly? Wondering if the Fore unit would fit this.

Care to comment on shipping cost?

Shipping was pricey. Sea freight was $2400AUD (~$1600USD). Air freight $3755AUD (~$2550USD). I went with sea freight. It took right on 4 months. I had to get a customs broker to clear the shipment in USA, $260USD. Then the warehouse fees charged by the shipper themselves was another $300USD upon pick up; which I wasn't overly happy about. So in the end I only saved approx. $400USD at the cost of a 4month wait lol. A small win. Although I also don't know if there are any additional fees for air freight.

The price was quoted by SCD Performance. I had them look after shipping. I did also do some independent research on freight carriers and got some far cheaper quotes. However after reading a lot of reviews, there were some horror stories about the cheaper companies, hiding fees and holding freight hostage. I was also really skeptical about such a large price delta. It was hard to find recommendations as I imagine independent shipping from Oz to USA is relatively niche. So I decided not to risk it and went with SCDs carrier.

I didn't order through the website. I sent them an email. My contact guy was Grant. I also had my parents, who live in Brisbane, go and visit their shop. Grant sent me the invoice via email and I ran my card over the phone.

How does 32 gallons of gas behind the axle improve weight distribution?

How about 120 gallons?

Deon @Inklvr69 (IG) added this to his TRX bed for e85. Thirsty rig with Redeye, then DSR1150, then DSR1500 swaps! You may have seen this TRX on the DSR social media (at 1375whp on their dyno) and most recently sporting the beta, not production ADS shock offerings! He also has a 1/8m CTD race truck alongside Poor Boys Diesel (Phoenix) that was featured on a Hoonigans episode.

He is not only fearless having launched this TRX further than anyone I've seen, but also tenacious to source vendors/solutions aggressively...and have them made when they don't exist.

Here is a screenshot from IG I saved (sorry, banned permanently from IG for ...words re: providing the other two pics! Dirtfab Designs is located in Phoenix https://www.facebook.com/p/Dirt-Fab-Designs-100067113722055/?_rdr

Subscribed. Curious to see how the install goes, and if there are any issues with it like fill ups. Would love to have more range in a TRX!
