MTS 1972-1977 Jeep CJ5, 1972-1975 Jeep CJ6 and 1976-1977 Jeep CJ7 large capacity 21-Gal. fuel tank

The MTS Plastic 21-Gal. fuel tank is specifically designed for the 1972-1977 Jeep CJ5, 1972-1975 CJ6, and 1976-1977 CJ7 models, providing a substantial upgrade to fuel capacity and functionality. This tank is engineered to fit behind the rear axle, enhancing the vehicle's weight distribution and performance. Installation requires the use of a 15-Gal. OEM style skid plate, end straps, and specialized fuel filler/vent hoses, as well as an in-line fuel filter to ensure optimal operation. The package includes essential components such as a longer top strap, sending unit, skid plate extensions, lock ring, and a gasket for a complete installation. With approximate dimensions of 23" x 16" x 15", this tank replaces OEM part numbers 5355314 and 8127698, ensuring compatibility and reliable performance for Jeep enthusiasts.

*The skid plate extensions are used to lower the skid plate to accomodate the taller fuel tank. Installing the skid plate might require some custom installation work when bolting to the frame of the vehicle.

**When installing the 0050 or 0050XL fuel tanks, the best fuel filler and fuel vent hoses are our CJFH-2 and CJVH-2 regardless of the year. Our manufacturing process does not allow for a long vent neck so the CJVH-3 and CJVH-4 hoses are too short when attached to the matching fuel filler hose.
