Always check your original tank for exact dimensions and mounting points before ordering.
Installation notes

Check before fitting that all connections and mounting points match your vehicle. Thoroughly clean the fuel system before installing a new tank.
Compatibility
Suitable for both 4x4 and 6x6 Dodge WC series vehicles. Note: within the WC series there are different tank versions depending on model and year of manufacture. Early models (WC-1 to WC-20) may differ from later ¾-ton variants (WC-51 etc.) and 6x6 models. Always check your original tank before ordering.
