Howdy yall, long time toyota guy here. First car was 07 4Runner, followed by a 2010 millennium silver manual TRD sc 4r, 07 tundra, 14 tundra, 16, 19 and 22 hybrid 1794 TRD OR. I sold the 22 and picked up a 21 Seqouia TRD pro for our growing family and desperately need a LR fuel tank. On the Seqouia Facebook group someone mentioned folks on here have swapped the Long Range 200 series spare tire tank into the Seqouia but my search has netted me zero results. Would love to know more, I am Boise, ID so LR is local. We tow our opus OP4 all over the west off the grid and need more range, especially coming from the larger fuel tanks of the last few trucks.

That would be a game changer, cross country trips require way too many fuel stops in the Sequoia.

I'd suggest going and talking to LRA there in Boise. It's a common vehicle request, so maybe they could work with you to try out something.
To date, nothing has been tested as viable for the Sequoia.

When I asked them about it a few months ago they told me they had zero plans for development. If it is truly as easy as someone said (modifying the bracket) and I can show them that, I bet they could make a modified bracket for us. There are at least 40 people I have found on various forums and groups that want an ext range tank. If i can find the person who made it work, life gets a lot easier trying to make this a reality.
Do a search as this has come up in the past and I have not seen anything for a long range tank for the Sequoia that anyone has built thus far--those threads may point you in the right direction. It for sure would be a game changer but I'm not sure any outfitters have seen enough willingness on the sales end to fabricate something up.
If memory serves it is not simple to retrofit another tank in

Don't forget the spare is going to have to get relocated too, and there aren't any aftermarket bumpers with swingouts that I know of.
Subbed, have been looking for some time for a client that is wanting more fuel capacity....
Tandem Off-road has a rear bumper with swing outs - not cheap!
Would you want it if it was cheap? Usually in this market you get what you pay for

Victory 4x4 just launched one as well, cheaper!
The sequoia floor is lower than the bed / cab floor is on the tundra so the tank interferes with the floor of the sequoia
@DexterL I'm sure you could find a fabricator willing to make an aluminum fuel cell to meet your needs with fairly little trouble. It likely would cost about as much as a LRA kit in the end.
I just purchased a 17 gallon aluminum fuel cell, inline pump, switch and gauge assembly from PEEL Electronics; and 80 series dual filler neck parts to cobble something together.
The tank looks more like it's actually 13-14 gallons so I will just modify it to enlarge it. Honestly you could probably fit 2 of them side by side where the spare tire goes, but they don't have internal baffling so I'm looking to solve that as well.
The only other issue is the filler neck, the 80 series switch valve and neck are the easy parts to find, it's the little levers and actuator rods that are the tough bit. You could probably fairly easily modify the existing filler neck to work just as easily. Branch it like an upside down Y at the neck. There ar Aussies that do extended tank setups this way.
