Fuel Tank for 1974 CJ5 What to buy?

Looking to replace my fuel tank. Have a 74 CJ5 with 258, 4 speed. What do you think would be the best replacement tank for the Jeep? Would like to find a good quality made in the USA tank. Also would like to know if replacement tanks have all the needed design features for easy install and fit. I have noticed fuel tanks on Ebay, but not sure where they are made and what kind of fit? No plastic, steel only. Any preferences?

 

I think if you buy steel, you're going to get an import tank.

MTS makes plastic replacement tanks that are well regarded.

 

Try spectra premium....they are out of Canada and great quality.

 

absolutly 100%
we stock and sell spectra in our stores and they are a GREAT company..

I found MTS shotty and really a poor excuse for a plastic tank..
I had a thread on this forum when I ordered mine on how disspleased I was...

I chose them for my replacement. The tank just looks and feels like quality.

 

What was the problem with the MTS tank? I looked at topics started by you and didn't see one about a tank. I'm curious since I have one. Did it split?

 

you know I looked as well and couldnt find it...
unsure if it was in another thread..
ill see if I still have some of the old pictures...

 

found it..

I've seen a few MTS tanks and was not impressed with its build quality.

I went with the cheap option and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the spectra tank made in Canada

 

I concur.....good quality for the price.

 

i third the spectra got mine online for like 90 bucks...
