Where to get fuel tank replacement ?

I have a 2005 ragen 3005 and the gas tank fell out.   Having a hard time finding someone to replace it in concord CA.   Any suggestions?

 

  • Do you have the often discarded bundle of manuals that come with all new RV's? If so you might be able to find out who made the original tank and see if they are still in business. Alternatively you might try joining the glamisdunes.com forum and post there for ideas. They are going to have a lot more RV's with fuel stations than you'll see here. 

    Are you looking for someone to just rehang the old tank or somebody to source a new tank and hang it? To just rehang the old tank I would google up a mobile RV repair guy or two and see if they'll take the job. They might even take on the task of sourcing a new tank and installing it. 
    If you want to try to source the kit yourself I would search for "toy hauler fuel station kit"  I did that search and on the first hits after the Amazon links I found

      I have the rage'n info bundle but it wasn't helpful. 

      Have now paid TWO mobile people to come fix,  one did new brakes and wheel bearings and hasnt gotten back to us about the tank.  I have called him twice.      The second guy did a inspection $350 and ghosted me.   

      Went to a rv repair shop and they said they could fit a water for me.   You cant use a water tank for gas so I said thanks but no.

  • What do you mean "gas tank"? Isn't a Ragan 3005 a Fifth Wheel? Are you talking about the LP tank?

      It has a gas tank for a fuel station and to power the generator.

        Ah, got it. thanks for clarifying and fixing my head scratching. Have you thought about an aftermarket fuel cell or finding a shop that works on race cars to make you a new tank? Most welding shops should be able to fabricate one.
