These SA 22 gal tanks were available here at least 6 years ago. Ken at
Vanagain sold them for a while. He may still. They replace the 2wd
stock tank with one that is longer in the rear but otherwise the same.
It requires minor cutting and welding to the body since the rear tank
support bracket has move back to allow the longer tank to fit. The US
price used to be in the ~$700 range.
