UPDATE: Tank Received! Pictures below- Aero Tanks Enterprises - A source for rear mounted FJ40 tanks.

I contacted Aero Tank back on the 24th. I got a reply from James "Jake" Selders who said he would send me a copy on Monday. As of today I've not received the install instructions and their web site doesn't seem to provide them as well.

Mike told me that it's been a while since he sold one of these and he's looking for the file with the instructions in it. If I get them, I'll share them here. Would you do the same? The website is not great. I talked to him, let him know that the tank was listed under Ford. He was surprised. My take is that he's an old school guy and builds the tanks but someone else probably runs the website. His work ethic is solid though. From first call to tank ready for pick up was 5 days.

Msapers,

Tank is still available. It has been stored for 30+ years, road under my truck moving from CA to NY but always had duct tape over the openings for FME. Never had any liquid in it. Comes with skid plate, pump, fill nozzle and neck tube. Location ColoradoSprings. $450

That’s a smoking deal.

I give up my first dibbies, I thought it was a Downey tank.

I did too until you said that Jim. I thought the skid plate looked like steel instead of that nice aluminum one you sell. Probably need to get my eyes checked although it still seems like a good price.

Problem with the 2 photos above. Using an engine that will require a 40 pulse "vehicle speed sensor" signal. Using an Advance Adapters rear motor mount with welded-on rear cup, so can't use Stealth Conversions transfer-case mounted VSS. Sooooo does the AA adapter have a provision for the VSS???

It does Jim. Between the transmission and transfercase. There’s an interrupter on the shaft extension and I used the pickup from BP Productions (stand alone harness for 5.3) if I remember correctly.

All of the adapters are from AA.

Edit: interrupter is on 4L60e shaft. Not AA extension shaft.
