38 gallon tank

Does anyone know of a shop that has installed a 38 gallon tank on a tundra? Sacramento/ Bay area. The only thing that bugs me about my truck is the small 26 gallon tank.

 

Don't know of one but there's a DIY post in this forum.

 

@Trdwillie14 had a shop install his. He would have to let you know which one.

 

Thanks for reminding me cuz I'm supposed to do my buddy's truck at some point this summer.

Sounds pretty straightforward to do.

Just priced it out

 

Let me know if you get it done. I wouldn't even know where to start lol.

 

Starting with an empty fuel tank is best.

 

So, basically step 1 is joyriding until the fuel light comes on.

 

It won't take long for that.

 

Fortunately and unfortunately.

 

Every time I have looked for the tank new through Toyota it shows it isn’t available

 

SparksParts no longer sells it either.

Olathe has it.....https://parts.olathetoyota.com/oem-parts/toyota-fuel-tank-770010c120

 

Just get the transfer flow 46 gallon

 

Too bad it’s not legal in California.

 

@papasmurf

He is in San Diego though.

 

What!? Good ol' Cali

 

Is it illegal because then they do the test on the gas tank opening you get different readings, or is it illegal because its a mod and they see a different tank on there? I ask because if its just a visual, i could find a less than thorough smog place that would conveniently forgot to look at the underside of the car.

 

Get a tank from a wrecked Tundra. So much cheaper and you can get the associated parts like the third bracket etc with it.

 

There’s goes the payload!

 

Go buy a prius

 

How are you liking the amber XB's? I thought all 3 projectors lit up with low beams on that version.

 

So I got mine done by a dude in Santa Clara some fab shop can’t remember the shop name his name is Kevin. (408)674-9646 he did the tank and welded the tank mount you have to buy. The big thing is make sure you have the right sender. It’s not in the parts list and I had to drop my tank and put a new sender in. But dude can do the work

 

It would fail visual but you could always try a skid plate but kinda hard to hide that tank lol

 

Billy, isn't this the sender? https://parts.stevenscreektoyota.com/p/63173397/833200C060.html

 

That’s it

 

Mine ended up being a flex truck and yah it won’t track the gas then you get a code

 

@Cruzer

 

@papasmurf can help you with parts

 

The pic you posted has the same part number 833200C060 that Bruce listed for the fuel sender. So now I'm confused. Which part number is for FFV and for non-FFV?

 

Is yours flex?
