Designed and manufactured in the heart of Colorado, this system has been real-world tested from 5,000 to 13,000 feet of elevation - beaten, bashed, and driven hard without failure. Constructed from 1\/8\" 5052 aluminum with a hammer finish satin black powder coat, it delivers serious corrosion resistance and a clean, factory-integrated appearance that tucks above the bumper line and stays virtually invisible.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  What sets this system apart is what it lets you keep: your KDSS, factory air ride, and Class 4 receiver hitch all remain fully intact. The auxiliary tank fills through your factory filler neck, simultaneously topping off both tanks at once, and the included side-corner fuel pickup even lets you share fuel with another vehicle when the trail calls for it. Everything you need for a clean, complete installation is included right in the box.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18 Gallon Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dramatically extends your driving range - ideal for overlanding, remote travel, or long commutes far from the pump.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1\/8\" 5052 Aluminum Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thicker-than-standard aluminum alloy offers superior corrosion resistance and long-term durability under harsh conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHammer Finish Satin Black Powder Coat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rugged, attractive finish that blends seamlessly with the 4Runner's undercarriage and resists chips and scratches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Split Fill Point:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fills through your factory filler neck and simultaneously fills both the primary and auxiliary tanks - no extra steps required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKDSS, Air Ride \u0026amp; Hitch Compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Retains your factory KDSS suspension, factory air ride system, and Class 4 receiver hitch - no sacrifices necessary.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide-Corner Fuel Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allows you to transfer fuel to another vehicle directly from the auxiliary tank - a standout feature for group overlanding trips.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbove-Bumper-Line Clearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-clearance design tucks above the bumper line and keeps all factory evap systems in place for a nearly invisible install.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProgrammable Transfer Switch \u0026amp; Fuel Level Gauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Included high-quality programmable fuel transfer switch with fuel level gauge keeps you informed and in control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% Designed \u0026amp; Built in the USA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engineered and manufactured in Colorado - no overseas shortcuts, no compromises on quality or fitment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Install Time - 5 Hours:\u003c\/strong\u003e All necessary hardware included for a straightforward DIY install, including stainless steel clamps, hardware, and bung.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease email us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for a delivery ETA or to confirm shipping details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18 Gallon aluminum auxiliary fuel tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgrammable fuel transfer switch with fuel level gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuality fuel pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel fuel level sender\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBung\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  Helivue Design built this system for people who push their 4Runner to its limits - overlanders tackling remote trails, commuters covering serious mileage, and anyone who can't afford to run out of fuel far from civilization. This tank has been proven in the real world at elevation, over rough terrain, and in demanding conditions that would expose any weak point in a lesser design. It's made entirely in the USA, engineered to fit the 4th Gen 4Runner without cutting corners on your factory equipment, and built to last the life of your vehicle.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  The nearly invisible installation means you get a massive range upgrade with none of the visual bulk or factory feature tradeoffs that plague other auxiliary tank solutions. Whether you're planning a multi-day overland expedition or just want the confidence of never watching the fuel gauge drop into the red, this system delivers exactly that - reliably, cleanly, and without compromise.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView Product Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTank Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAuxiliary\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCapacity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 Gallons\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGasoline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFill Point\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Split (factory filler neck)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/8\" 5052 Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHammer Finish Satin Black Powder Coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 Pounds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpare Tire Relocation Required\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRecommended Install Time\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 Hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2003-2009 Toyota 4Runner (4th Gen)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry of Manufacture\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA (Colorado)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill this auxiliary tank work with my 4Runner's KDSS or factory air ride suspension?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eYes - this is one of the key advantages of the Helivue Design system.
