0070 MTS 1997-2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ Fuel Tank, Plastic, 19 Gallon, Replaces 52018768AE Only
description
The fuel tank for the 1997-2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ is a significant component, notable for its 19-gallon capacity and construction from durable plastic. This choice of material, typically high-density polyethylene, offered distinct advantages over traditional steel tanks, as it was inherently resistant to rust and corrosion – a major benefit for a vehicle often exposed to the elements, mud, and water. The ample 19-gallon capacity provided the iconic off-roader with a respectable driving range, crucial for extended adventures on trails where fuel stations are scarce. While robust, its plastic construction also meant it was generally lighter and less prone to catastrophic failure from minor impacts compared to brittle steel, though extreme off-road conditions often led owners to install aftermarket skid plates for added protection beneath the vehicle.
Approx. dimensions: 34" x 17 1/2" x 12 1/2"
Includes (2) new emission valves, (2) grommets and a pair of upper straps.
Does not come with a sending unit gasket or sending unit module
Installation of the sending unit module is different than the original screw on nut.
Manufacturer: MTS
Warranty Information: 5 Year
