The auxilary tank in compartment under driver seat on my mc9 has rusted out and needs replacing. Where is a good place to buy this? I was on a trip when it decided to leak. I just disconnected the line at the air manifold and put a plug in. Thanks for your help. Marc

Might try Luke at US Coach (888-COACH34) or Sam Caylor in Rantoul, KS if you want to find a used one.  Jack

Marcus,

After getting some prices with shipping included, you may want to check out your local truck salvage yard.

Most tanks have openings and plugs for a variety of applications

But first take good measurements and stuff of your existing rusted out tank soss you can get the correct size, or near enough.  Lots of good $deals$ to be had if your don't mind looking and installing it yourself.  HB of CJ (old coot)

I found a couple on ebay at good prices. There were literally hundreds listed.

You may not find the exact size, I didn't , but it fit.

Just be sure it has the right size and located threaded openings. Some have numerous openings but they can be plugged.
