I was surprised when I found Titan and Transfer flow don't make replacement tanks for my 2017 3500 SWB crew cab.
Does any one make one?

Don't want an in- bed tank.

My solution. 70 gal L2 or L3 Gleaner Combine tank. Found at Combine salvage for $100 or less.
It's a low oval tank that is lower than top of box.
Perfect and cheap.

According to both Companies, neither make a mid-ship replacement for the new 2017/18 GM Long Bed Duallies. I just went through it looking for one. Ended up with an RDS In-Bed Below Rails 40 Gal Fuel/Took Box Combo.

Maybe not for Ram or Ford, but both companies make replacement tanks for GM CCSB trucks. Transfer Flow is a 60 gal and Titan is a 57 gal tank. But since the GM CCSB has a 36 gal. stock tank, I haven't really seen the need for a replacement unit.


That is because the GM DEF tank hangs down in harms way on the passenger side of the truck and does not co-exist with the fuel tank on the drivers side.

"My fuel light came on in my new Ram 3500. I was near a diesel station so I filled it up - could only get 25 gallons in! It is a 31 gallon tank. Does this mean I have a 6 gallon reserve after the fuel light comes on?"


The point being, we should not have to go through the poster's history for details on a question he's asking. Two words, "RAM," and "diesel," would have made his question so much clearer.

Being a 2017 RAM, which is a new platform if I'm not mistaken, I would imagine that an aftermarket tank is being developed unless there is some EPA regulation preventing it, or the tank manufacturers are in financial trouble.

Possibly, but I would also want to know if they really filled the tank due to foaming. I can always nurse in around 5-6 gallons after the pump clicks off.

I quick look at his other posts, it is a RAM. They do not make a dually SB CC BTW, so it is a SRW.

Seeing as the only thing anyone knows is it's a 2017, 3500, short wheel base, it will be hard for anyone to help you. Brand, dually/non-dually, etc. would be important to know.

That's a shame if they don't... I have the Titan 51 gallon mid-ship replacement tank in my "15" 350
