But if you have a plastic tank, time too replace it with a metal one

Hey MrWizard,
Question for ya. When you are referring to the "plastic" tank-reservoir, are you talking about the horizontal one, just above the radiator, on the right side, as in many diesel Rvs equipped with a rear radiator and, a Freightliner chassis? Is it the one below?
And if so, you're also talking about an aluminum replacement one for it? I think I've seen "ONE" either on here or, on another RV forum someplace but can't remember where(imagine that). Again, if it's an aluminum replacement one, can you link a source for that one? I can TIG one up but, sometimes it's just easier to open the wallet.
