Re: Well it's not a Chevy....

LMC tank failure: A popular upgrade on OBS ford trucks is the 38 gallon rear tank (replacing the 19 gallon original). We did this back when it was gas powered last year. Just after the warranty expired, it developed a serious leak. So, the owner drove it 650 miles, I brimmed a 5 gallon bucket with what was left, and then proceeded to apply a patch. While I was leak testing it, I found another random crack at the top of the tank. I noticed some rub spots that I didn't want to have to deal with later, so I applied some bed liner product. Anyone else had issues with LMC components?

By the way, this truck carries 57 gallons of fuel.
