Heh Heh He said bung. Heh Heh. Sorry Guys. I miss Beavis and Butthead.

 

Hold off on the aftermarket ones guys, I saw first hand this year at Glamis a friend whose $$ pingry tank broke at the mounts !!! It leaked oil and when he got it back to camp he was almost 1/2 empty [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Would a high temp silicone work? I had a crack in my old 5 gallon toilet tank and I used some GE silicone and it has held. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

No theres to much pressure in the system for silicone. Trying ti weld it would be your best bet but JB weld is ok but if a rock hits the JB weld it will break right off its real brittle.

 

so now what do i do....i am still going to have walshracecraft weld my tank......and i hope it holds up......gentlemen....who else makes aftermarket oil tanks for the raptor....i would like to look at them all.......the only problem i can "forsee" is that the tanks may not be compatible with my Scott's Performance steering stabilizer............any info here will be highly appreciated.......
herbdon out..............

 

i was wondering where the oil on my frame was coming from,i got a stress crack also!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

There is a new oil tank coming to market shortly (within 30 days) that holds more oil then stock, offers better cooling, and has some other "interesting" features that I can't disclose right now. Also, it doesn't break. We'll be publishing a review on it in about a month.

 

CFM tank on ebay

 

Not cheap at $275.00Raptor oil tank
Can't wait to read about the new oil tank over at www.atvconnection.com
