IMO, it's just a matter of time until LRA comes up with an offering.

Do they also supply the pickup etc for the Aux tank and did they mention it working with the stock tank? That is the path I plan to take.
As far as China we scheduled a shipment of garage doors and custom entry doors on monday and didn’t know it was a holiday. Maybe they were working through..
I thought they were just a broker for Chinese parts? This other one is direct but not the same manufacturer of what LRA imports.

Can’t wait for feedback on this
Kind of off topic. I am planning of doing the same..towing an airstream tradewind 25ft. Wound you mind sharing the mpg and your camper specs? I was estimating at least 150 miles per tank at 10mpg with the lx700h. Debating if you should just use by 100 series diesel instead.
My camper is 7400 dry. I got 7.5mpg average.
I ordered it and they refunded me? Did you get it yet?

I just posted over the the LX600 tank thread.
Yes - there was an issue with theor direct paypal account.
They should send you an email with a link to Alibaba.
Create an inquiry.
They send you an updated alibaba invoice (you can still use paypal but it goes through Alibaba’s account vs direct)
They equalized my total cost via a discount as it calculated $40-$60 higher
You’ll be good to go after that.
Awesome thank you!

I think the FK is the way to go. From what I hear, initial quality is very high and doesn't require a fuel pump. I am planning on installing one as soon as Slee has them back in stock.

Agree with @Eric Sarjeant, the FK will be worlds easier to install. And parts will likely be cheaper too.
The factory subtank will be a harder install due to the missing frame weldments for the tank mounting.

Have you installed one yet? If so did you get factor or FK (aux or larger main)?

I have not installed one yet. Plan to soon
How did FK solve this?
Does anyone know of any products coming from long range America? they seem to be pretty established the the aux fuel tank game
I installed the FK as the main tank alone. Get about 340 or so miles in combined cycle
I spoke to the LRA rep last year at Overland Expo in Flag. They said the earliest for the LX or LC300 would be a few years away (then)
Higgy’s in Mesa, AZ installed mine and having done LRA tanks for others told me that the FK was better quality and lighter
The guage interpretation requires some awareness or resetting the trip meter after each refuel as the guage is no longer accurate
