I have a 2018 5500 built out , I think i'm gonna do a OEM aux fuel tank underneath , there is a specific spot for this on these trucks , however the tank is much smaller , it should provide a 700 mile overall drive range when partnered with the stock 52/g tank. ~peace~
Heck yeah! That 22 gallon aux tank from the factory is great but I wanted more capacity so that's why I went with this custom 85 gallon tank. Thank you so much for watching!
I find the latches on the boxes over time become loose and eventually need to be replaced. Keep in mind that's on a daily usage setup, in and out of the boxes all day. Might be ok for me ghter usage applications. Aside from that the next part that fails is the cables that support the doors that open downwards / flat.
I appreciate you sharing your experience. I hope they last awhile and I don't use them really at all when we are not on the road. Thank you so much for watching!
1001 pounds of fuel you can carry before you need an endorsement. So gasoline weighs 6 pounds per gallon times that by 137 gallons and I sit at 822 pounds of fuel. I will be under that threshold.

where do you put your spare tire when the camper and the new truck boxes are on?
Yeah where did your old fuel tank go?
Do you put the levellers under the jacks due to the height or so you do not have to run the jacks as long?
Yes, I use levelers under the jacks
@@KruseandViews Yes, but why?
How many gallons of Gasoline can you legally haul without having a Haz Mat Endorsement?
