I did the same for my 2018 3500 CCSB and then I traded it in for a 2022 Ram 3500 CCLB and made sure I got the 50 gals tank, yeah I know if I had known I was getting a 2022 Laramie I wouldn't have had it installed. It came in handy towing cross country with our 37' rv.
I reached out to Titan and asked them about gas versions. They responded with something along the lines that gas burning is so heavily regulated by the EPA issues that they are not allowed to modify a gas burner to to change the tank size. That's paraphrasing their reply.
Thanks for the video! On the floor in my garage (on a 2022 Ram 2500) and no helper took about 6 hours. The straps come curved and you have to flatten them out. Then angle the retention heads that hook into the frame at about a 65 degree angle to lock them into the frame. Then the majority of the 6 hours was spent trying to hammer/bend/push/press those strap back into place. It is best to use a floor jack to hold the strap in place near the new bend and continue to TRY and form the strap around the new tank. It would have been SO much easier with a 2nd set of hands. The tank has been working flawlessly. I am currently awaiting my security by-pass cable to come in so I can adjust the fuel tank setting using an OBDII Additional costs I was not expecting were for: OBDII (with blue tooth) $20.99 Security by-pass cable (permanent mount, this one you install and leave it in place) $49.99 or Security by-pass cable (temp mount, this one connects to your truck and protrudes out slightly) $27.00 AplhaOBD software $49.00 I spoke with a guy at Titan and he pointed me in this direction as another customer previously addressed the "miles to empty" solution. Currently I have driven about 250 miles and my needle just came off the Full tank mark!
Glad to hear you’re enjoying the larger tank. That’s pretty brave taking it on by yourself on the floor. I had my wife assisting 😆. Once you program the miles to empty it’s pretty amazing seeing over a 900 mile range.
@@DustinFaddis I finished programming my new tank size. I learned that not all security bypass cables are the same! The first one I received off Amazon did not work. The one from Kraft on the Highway worked as needed.
Hey Dustin, I just subbed I saw you have a 3500 and you're in Alaska, so am I! With this crazy snow this year I was looking for ways to improve my 3500 for snow and just fuel efficiency. Watching your videos now! I think I need a bigger fuel tank now instead of hauling around jugs of fuel to be safe LOL!
Haha, thanks for the support. Where are you at? I really love the upgrade. It’s a great piece of mind with the longer range. I’ve driven from Fairbanks to kenai peninsula and back without fueling up
Ordered a 22 crew cab Dually H.O Cummins with the 50 gallon tank option I think it was like $250/$300 dollars really an exceptionally cheap and great upgrade with a Dually and 4:10’s I’m gonna need it 😂
@@christopherwilson7698 yeah I’m glad they’re listening. Or my dealer just lied and they had larger tanks all along 😆 I can definitely see that happening
I thoroughly enjoyed your videos, thank you for doing them. Yes it's too bad for us Gas boys not to be able to get extended tanks, I don't think I've seen an extended tanks made since the early 2000s for that same years of Gas trucks.
I thought about doing this for my 2500. But I have read/heard that it could void any warranty associated with the fuel system if something goes wrong? Thoughts on that?
They would have to have a very good case of what you did directly effected the fuel system. For example if you replace it and the sending unit fails right after. I would expect that they wouldn’t cover it. I would tend to side with them at this point. You probably didn’t do something correctly. If you start getting bad readings and your fuel fuse doesn’t work, if they pull the tank down and it turns out you crushed an electrical wire going to the sending unit then they won’t cover that… “obviously” . However, if your fuel pump or fuel injectors go out then they will cover those. I’ve worked at dealers and most dealers Are there to help you unless you messed something up. I hope that kinda answers your question. I don’t find it to be an issue.
@Matthew Lengyel I would really like to do this. It would be my luck something goes wrong and have to battle the dealership for anything else not associated with the swap.
Great video! Although I thought the megacab short bed Titan Tank was 50 gallons, not 52? The 52 gallon shows for extended cab short bed. Any issues setting the EZ-LYNK fuel tank to 52 gallons since there is no 50 gallon option bud?
Great question Tony, I forgot to post an update. So online the track says 50 gallon but the box came with instructions that said 52 gallon. I called them back and you’re right, it’s a 50 gallon. The latest ez LYNK update has added many more fuel tank sizes so you can add an auxiliary tank and add that fuel as well. They now have a 50 gallon option. We’ve gone on a trip and traveled 900 miles before fueling up. We weren’t towing anything but that’s great range
@@DustinFaddis Thanks for the update Dustin! I actually checked my EZ-LYNK and sure enough it has the 50 gallon (stock) option now that you can select. I see the Texas registration, when are you coming back to Texas?
@@tonyh.4395 glad to hear you have there update as well. I hate when I say there’s an update and it’s only regional for testing 😂. You saw correct when you spotted the Texas registration. My wife and I are active duty military. I’ll be retiring shortly but the wife still has about 5 years. I’m guessing we’ll be back in Texas next. Hopefully anyway, we have a house in the San Antonio area
@@DustinFaddis awsome brother, thank you for your service sir! I was born and raised in military town SA. Live out by Montgomery now. If you ever make it back to SA, I'll buy you a round sir 🍻. Side not I installed the Titan tank last night, what a pain that was swapping it on the floor. Did you tighten down the band straps completely down to where the curved portion where the nut seats, is resting on the truck? The tank band mounts with the long studs, drive shaft side. Seemed like I was going to compress the tank too much if I went completely flush with the bracket.
@@tonyh.4395 I’ll hold you to that if we go back to Texas. We loved San Antonio. We were there for almost 5 years. We still own a home in Selma just north of SA. I was actually unable to get the straps fully seated with the larger tank. It has about a centimeter, maybe a half inch gap. Plenty of threads hold it and it’s not loose. I got underneath a few times after I installed just to check that it wasn’t getting loose.
No we did not reuse the heat shield. I was concerned at first but when I contacted them, they explained that the material is stronger than stock. I’ve watched videos of people driving over these tanks so I’m not concerned anymore. As for heat… I don’t think that’s an issue either but I will be taking some temp readings in the spring.
You’ll have to check the Titan fuel tank website. Unfortunately I don’t think that they make tracks for gas trucks. We wanted a tank for my wife’s Colorado but she has the gas engine and they only make the tank for diesel truck. You should check with them though because they could make it for your truck. Or call them if they’re don’t list it on their site.
I installed this tank and went to the dealer to have them reset the PCM in order to account for the larger tank. All short bed trucks will not accept 52 gallon tank programming. What I have heard/seen is the first 10 gallons do not budge the tank gauge. And the last 10 hold around the E level on the tank. Anyone find anything different or are we just using average mpg times gallons on the tripometer to determine range?
Rebecca, I just checked on the Titan website and they fit the 2022 as well. I was hoping that Ram fixed this issue and have an option for a larger tank. I guess I was wrong.
@@GaryBlankenship96b40 that is weird. I didn’t know that. I’m really happy with the range with the larger tank. I have gotten 900+ miles when driving empty. I expect around 400-450 miles when towing.
That sounds odd. We bought a 2020 Ram 3500 and got it with a 50 gallon tank from the factory. It doesn’t make much sense Dodge would stop doing it. But then, what’s sense got to do with it?
I’ve actually gotten just over 900 miles to a tank. I was getting over 18.5 mpg and drive until the fuel light came on. I’m really happy with the tank.

I’m sure it did come in handy. The extended range is really nice to have
I wish they made this for a gas truck. Do you know if they will start making them?
So far they don’t make a gas version. It’s too bad because I’d definitely buy one for our Colorado.
I reached out to Titan and asked them about gas versions. They responded with something along the lines that gas burning is so heavily regulated by the EPA issues that they are not allowed to modify a gas burner to to change the tank size. That's paraphrasing their reply.
@@TheBravo364 I figured it was something like that. Thanks
I do have a 5th wheel hitch . Looking at the banks diff cover with the heat probe looks like it could save a bunch before it grenades the rear axle.
Another great video that details all to expect when switching the fuel tank-thank you!
Thanks Bryan , glad you liked the video.
Thanks for the video!

To bipass the extra swipe amount. Hit 78989, hold the enter button then you can select any preset amount you want to pump

Thanks for the feedback my friend. From my understanding there are too many laws and regulations of gas tanks.
Did you consider the OEM 70 gallon tank that is only available on the chassis cab but removes the spare tire.
I thought about doing this for my 2500. But I have read/heard that it could void any warranty associated with the fuel system if something goes wrong? Thoughts on that?

My local dealer told me it would only void the tank and any part that was changed to aftermarket pieces
@Matthew Lengyel I would really like to do this. It would be my luck something goes wrong and have to battle the dealership for anything else not associated with the swap.
Heck, my dealer will do the install. Seems to me that ought to protect the warranty?
@@matthewlengyel764 that makes sense to me. Some dealers aren’t sensible though 😆
