WTB: Genright Fuel Tank

[gasiorv]

I have a GR Crawler 23 gallon tank and it hangs a little too low for the type of wheeling that I do. I want to install a tank that is slightly higher and willing to give up some fuel capacity.

Anyone have a GR 19.5 Crawler or the 15 Gallon Alien they are looking to get rid of? Cash or can trade the 23 if someone is looking for more fuel capacity.

Was there an older version of the 23 that hangs lower? I only see the Crawler Comp 23 listed on Genright, which lists it as the same 1” additional ground clearance as the Crawler EXT 19.5. I have the 19.5.

It is the same Comp23 on the website.

I scaled the actual dwgs that they provide on the website and all three basically provide the same dimension from the aft mount flange to the aft lower edge of the tank:
15 gal - 6.13"
19.5 gal - 6.21"
23 gal - 6.13"
Scaling is approx so this is most likely the same dimension.

The very front of the tank, since the 19.5 gal is flatter provides more clearance. Again, from aft mount flange to the fwd lower edge.
15 gal - 7.62"
19.5 gal - 7.4"
23 gal - 8.10"

Now is the 0.5" - 0.7" more clearance at the front of the tank worth spending another $1500? No. But if I can find a used one at a decent deal and sell mine at a decent deal and it becomes a wash, I will take it. I am also trying to overcome another issue. I have the tank raised another 1.25" and the comp23 is right against the tub, so much so that the vents are rubbing the tub. Both the 19.5 and the 15 gal will give me more room between the tub and tank and will hopefully prevent rubbing. AND I may be able to modify the mounting flanges to gain even more clearance.
