There are a couple of options for the auxilliary fuel tank next to the driveshaft. The Long Ranger 70 liter (18.5Gal) aux. tank.
I was lucky enough to find a used tank from a MUD member. Now all I need is the 38 gallon replacement tank and I am good to go for an extended non-stop drive. 50 gallons @ 20mpg (or so, hopefully) with the 12HT swap. I am looking at about thousand mile range, how does that sound like for the Bolivian salt plains Josh?
Guys, I did the math... $635 for the MAF long range fuel tank. BUT, I have to move the spare - to a rear carrier (Option1) or the roof rack (option 2) I presume.
Kaymar rear carrier is $400, plus $650 for the bumper with the pivots.
Total for option 1 = $1685... :'(
Option 2 means get a roof rack which $537 (Square Tube Tradesman for a 60), plus the spare tire mount (maybe $75?) plus a cover ($37.00) so the tire doesn't fry in the sun.
Total for option 2 = $1284... ???
My answer -- For about $ 2500 bucks, I having a custom off road trailer built with 4 Blitz cans (which will carry the same 20 gallons of extra fuel, 40 gallon stainless water tank, an extra spare, and other goodies (shower, lights, ect.). Plus, I can carry a half ton of other gear... or more gas if needed. A more cost effiicient shoice, IMHO... :

you know...... you could make that a 3 can basket....
n mount a spout carrier under that basket made out of abs pipe..
MAF tank not fitting on the first try?!?! Never seen that happen! ....Jesus what a fracking ordeal that was....
I know this post is old, but I'm now looking for the long range tank and As far as I know MAF no longer sells it.
Anyone else in the US make one?
I live in SOCAL.
I think somewhere on this thread is the same link as http://www.4wdsystems.com.au/index.php?id=25
I think it took something like $1200 for tank and import fees, total

It was on clearance on their site for a while. Now it is gone.Are you sure? Bought one in April this year (2014).
I got a 'SALE' quote this spring, $1700 incl shipping. Reg $1950.00 I just didn't have the cash.
Man-a-fre can have them built but the minimum order is five. When he was offering them five would last him a year and a half.
I was under the impression Outback Proven closed their doors a couple weeks ago so USA lost the only importer ( as far as I know ) of Kaymar, Long Range,
Maxtrax and Lightforce. Kaymar pulled for lack of sales and as of now have no intent of coming back .
If you could round up five buyers Al ( Man-A-Fre ) would order a batch.
