Gas Tank

Where's the best place to buy a stock replacement gas tank (or one that will bolt right up in it's place). I know Brother's has them, but the size isn't listed.
Thanks,
-Tim

Tim I just dropped the tank on mine tonight and need to know the same info.

Do you have to go with poly or what other choices do we have?

The choices are steel or poly. I've heard the poly ones sometimes leak around the O ring/lock ring for the sending unit. The original Blazer tank is 20 gallons, the repos are said to be the same. All the parts places carry tanks, just need to figure out which has best price or best to deal with or closest to your home or?

blazer tank

I have a nice orignal tank out of a 71 4x4. $100. + the ride if they will ship it. It has been in storage for the last 15 years.
