2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma Auxiliary Fuel Tank System 18 Gallon


Description

The Helivue Design 18 Gallon Auxiliary Fuel Tank System is a no-compromises solution for 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma owners who demand extended range without sacrificing ground clearance or factory functionality. Designed and manufactured 100% in Colorado, this lightweight aluminum tank tucks neatly above the bumper line, making it nearly invisible while keeping all factory evap systems completely intact. It fills directly through your OEM filler neck, simultaneously charging both the factory and auxiliary tanks in a single stop - no extra steps, no separate fill points.

Whether you're grinding through a daily commute or pushing deep into backcountry overlanding terrain, this system has been built to handle it all. It has been thoroughly tested - beaten, bashed, and driven at elevations from 5,000 to 13,000 feet - without failure. Every component is engineered to reduce complexity and leak paths, giving you a cleaner, more reliable install you can count on for the long haul.


Key Features

  • 18-Gallon Capacity: Adds significant range to your 3rd Gen Tacoma without requiring a stop at the pump - ideal for remote travel and overlanding.
  • 1/8" 5052 Aluminum Construction: Thicker-gauge aluminum alloy delivers superior corrosion resistance and rugged durability at a lightweight 25 lbs.
  • OEM Split Fill Point: Fills through the factory filler neck, simultaneously filling both tanks at once - no separate fill procedures needed.
  • Hammer Finish Satin Black Powder Coating: Durable, attractive finish resists chips, scratches, and the elements for long-term good looks.
  • High Clearance Design: Tucks above the bumper line so it stays nearly invisible and doesn't compromise off-road ground clearance.
  • Factory Evap System Preserved: All OEM evaporative emissions systems remain fully intact - no compliance headaches or check engine lights.
  • Side Corner Fuel Pickup: Built-in side corner pickup port allows you to share fuel with another vehicle if needed - great for group overlanding trips.
  • Reduced Leak Paths: Simplified design eliminates unnecessary complexity and hosing, minimizing potential leak points for a cleaner, safer install.
  • Programmable Fuel Transfer Switch & Gauge: Includes a high-quality programmable transfer switch and fuel level gauge so you always know what's in reserve.
  • Spare Tire Relocation: Designed to accommodate spare tire relocation as part of the fitment - keeps your setup functional and organized.
  • 100% Made in the USA: Designed, built, and tested in Colorado - backed by American craftsmanship and real-world durability testing.

Why You'll Love It

Helivue Design built this system for people who actually use their Tacomas - hard. If you're an overlander pushing into remote terrain where fuel stations are miles apart, or a commuter logging serious highway miles, this tank quietly doubles your fuel capacity without changing the look or function of your truck. The nearly invisible high-clearance profile means you won't sacrifice approach angles or aesthetics, and the OEM-compatible fill system means fueling up is exactly as simple as it's always been - just longer between stops.

Knowing this tank has been tested at altitude across Colorado's most demanding terrain gives real confidence that it won't let you down when it matters most. Everything in the kit is quality hardware - stainless steel throughout, a programmable transfer system, and a fuel gauge so you're never guessing. For Tacoma owners who want extended range done right, this is the system trusted by commuters and hard-core overlanders alike.

FAQ

Will this tank affect my factory evaporative emissions system?

No - the Helivue Design auxiliary tank is specifically engineered to keep all factory evap systems in place. You won't get a check engine light or any compliance issues from installing this system.

Does this tank fill at the same time as my factory tank?

Yes. The system uses an OEM split fill point, meaning it fills through your factory filler neck and simultaneously fills both the factory and auxiliary tanks at once. There's no separate fill procedure or extra steps required.

How difficult is installation, and do I need a professional?

Helivue Design rates the recommended install time at approximately 4 hours. The kit includes all necessary hardware - stainless steel clamps, hardware, and a bung - so a mechanically inclined owner with basic tools should be able to complete the install at home. If you're not comfortable with fuel system work, a professional shop is always a safe option.

Will this tank fit my Tacoma if it has a 2016-2023 model year?

Yes - this system is designed specifically for the 3rd Generation Toyota Tacoma, covering model years 2016 through 2023. If you have a 2024 or newer Tacoma, or an earlier 1st or 2nd gen model, Helivue Design offers separate systems for those fitments.

Does the system come with a fuel gauge so I know how much is in the auxiliary tank?

Yes. The kit includes a programmable fuel transfer switch and fuel level gauge along with a stainless steel fuel level sender, so you always have a clear read on your auxiliary tank's fuel level.

Does installing the auxiliary tank require relocating my spare tire?

Yes - spare tire relocation is part of the fitment for this system. The tank is designed to accommodate this, and all necessary considerations are built into the design. Plan for spare tire relocation as part of your installation process.
