Popular Post ranchhopper Posted January 28, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2016 I have to replace the air tanks on the superliner they are a patched up rusty mess I can get three aluminum five gallon tanks the same size as stock 23X10 for $310 shipped to the house.Or I can get four of the polished stainless 19X8 (pictured) for $240 shipped to the house. Im leaning towards the stainless tanks I can pair them up they are three gallon a bit smaller than stock and I can bolt them right to the bottom of the battery boxes. The aluminum tanks need to be polished as they are just a brushed finish and for some reason salvage yards want their weight in gold for used aluminum tanks these are new and much cheaper than stock and stainless doesn't rust and I believe they are made in the USA. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43761-new-air-tanks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I think they go for $2/gal here locally. When I stretched my truck I got some tanks for $25 each? Few years later they wanted $100 for the same tank! I haggled them to $50. 8" x 24"? Something around that. Just black painted alum tanks. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

ranchhopper Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 I think the painted steel ones are at least 50 bucks now. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43761-new-air-tanks/#findComment-322088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
