Reviews for MTS 0051 Replacement 15 gallon Polyethylene Fuel Tank for 78-86 Jeep CJ-5, CJ-7 & CJ-8
It fit perfectly in my 83 CJ7. Used factory skid plate and straps with no issues at all
Nice dense poly. Fit in OEM skid. I had to use a die to cut about a half inch of threads onto the stud on the OEM strap, but it worked just fine. The MTS strap did not fit with the original skid (left a gap of about 2 inches between the bracket and the skid). Easy install and MTS answered all of my questions very quickly.
I don't know what the other customer owns but on my 76 cj7 jeep with original metal skid plate the MTS 15 gallon plastic tank did fit. But again, I have a 76 cj7. I also changed the fuel inlet opening to the smaller diameter found stock on 78 cj7 and up.
Quality product, however it does not fit stock skid plate or tank straps. You must use MTS' skid plate and straps. Good tank, just wish I knew that before ordering! MTA makes good parts, just can't give 5 stars due to fitment issue.
