56-gallon Replacement Tank

[CNeal]

Has anyone installed the new 56 gallon replacement fuel tank from Transfer Flow? This tank is suppose to be easy to install and is supposed to allow you the same ground clearance as the stock tank for the 2004. 5 4x4 quad cab diesel ram truck. Does anyone know anything about this? I think it would be worth installing if it fit approximately in the same space as the stock tank did.

the latest issue of tdr discusses that issue.

TDR #48, pp. 166-168. Photo of ground clearance is on p. 168. It might hang down a little more than stock; I'm not sure. However, it does give enough ground clearance as it is well above the axle tube. Toward the front where "high centering" might be an issue, it seems to hang down no farther than stock and it is stronger, of course, in case it scrapes a rock. It is shaped better for more capacity compared to stock, but a lot of the extra comes from its length. It comes up closer to the transfer case, but from experience I can tell you that there is still plenty of clearance to change the clutch.
