Nasty...

Might be able to temp fix it.

How big is the gash?

If its small enough, try draining, light sandpaper rub, get some of that metal epoxy glue from repco, (I even think they have specific glue for tank repairs) and give that a go...

But its only a temp fix to get u out of trouble.

I have seen it happen to a mates GQ, check your panhard rod.

Think that is what was wrong with his, was a bit out.

I modded the tank on the girls wagon, when the suspension hits the bumpstop on full tilt the tail shaft will still hit the tank. I had the same problem on my coilcab but I just removed the tank.

I have seen replacement gq tanks from LRA for about 600 max. They might alter the tank you have now. They are building my a custom 140 Litre tank for my comp truck. Dont scare me :lol:
