2025-Current Toyota 4Runner Auxiliary Fuel Tank System 18 Gallon
Description
The Helivue Design 18 Gallon Auxiliary Fuel Tank System is a purpose-built range extender engineered specifically for the 2025 and newer Toyota 4Runner. Designed and manufactured 100% in Colorado, this system adds 18 gallons of fuel capacity using a lightweight, high-clearance aluminum tank that tucks neatly above the bumper line - staying virtually invisible while preserving every key factory feature. Unlike bulky aftermarket alternatives, this system is fully compatible with KDSS, Factory Air Ride, and your Class 4 receiver hitch, making it the go-to choice for overlanders and daily drivers who refuse to compromise.
The tank fills simultaneously with your main tank through the factory filler neck, so there's no guesswork or extra steps at the pump. Built from thicker 1/8" 5052 aluminum with superior corrosion resistance, this system has been tested and beaten across Colorado's Front Range from 5,000 to 13,000 feet of elevation without failure. Whether you're chasing remote trailheads or grinding through long highway commutes, this fuel system gives you the confidence to go further.
Key Features
- 18-Gallon Capacity: Adds a full 18 gallons of auxiliary fuel - dramatically extending your 4Runner's range for overlanding, remote travel, or long commutes.
- 1/8" 5052 Aluminum Construction: Thicker aluminum alloy provides superior corrosion resistance and durability over standard tank materials.
- OEM Split Fill Point: Fills simultaneously through your factory filler neck alongside the main tank - no separate filling process required.
- Preserves KDSS, Factory Air Ride, and Class 4 Hitch: Designed so you keep every key factory system intact - no sacrifices to install this tank.
- High-Clearance, Low-Profile Design: Tucks above the bumper line and remains nearly invisible, preserving approach and departure angles.
- Minimal Modification Required: Bolts directly into existing frame locations with almost no drilling or custom fabrication needed.
- Side Corner Fuel Pickup: Built-in side pickup allows you to transfer fuel to another vehicle when needed - great for trail groups and remote expeditions.
- Reduced Leak Paths: Simplified design eliminates unnecessary complexity and extra hosing to minimize potential failure points.
- Programmable Fuel Transfer System Included: Kit comes with a programmable fuel transfer switch, fuel level gauge, quality fuel pump, and stainless steel fuel level sender.
- 100% USA Designed, Built, and Tested: Engineered and manufactured in Colorado, and proven on real terrain from 5,000 to 13,000 feet elevation.

Why You'll Love It
Helivue Design built this system for people who actually use their 4Runner - the overlanders pushing deep into the backcountry and the commuters logging serious highway miles far from the nearest fuel station. This isn't a compromise-filled bolt-on; it's a precision-engineered solution that respects your 4Runner's factory engineering while meaningfully extending what it can do. The fact that it keeps KDSS, factory air suspension, and your receiver hitch fully functional speaks to how thoughtfully it was designed. Proven at altitude across Colorado's most demanding terrain, this tank isn't just tough on paper - it's been validated in the real world. With everything needed for installation included in the kit and a recommended install time of just 5 hours, you'll be on the road with extended range faster than you'd expect. If you're serious about your 4Runner's capability, this is the fuel system it deserves.

FAQ
Will this tank work with my 4Runner's KDSS or factory air ride suspension?
Yes - the Helivue Design auxiliary tank is specifically engineered to maintain full compatibility with KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System), factory air ride, and your Class 4 receiver hitch. No suspension modifications are required.
How does the tank fill up? Do I need a separate filler cap or hose?
No separate fill point is needed. The auxiliary tank fills simultaneously with your main tank through the factory filler neck. When you pump fuel at the station, both tanks fill at the same time - completely seamless and hassle-free.
How much fabrication or modification is required for installation?
Very little. The system is designed to bolt into existing frame locations with almost no modification required. The recommended install time is approximately 5 hours, and everything needed for installation is included in the kit.
Does this system require the spare tire to be relocated?
Yes, spare tire relocation is required as part of the installation. This is noted in the product specifications. Helivue Design accounts for this in the overall system design.
Can I use this system to transfer fuel to another vehicle on the trail?
Yes - the tank features a fuel pickup on the side corner specifically to allow fuel transfer to another vehicle when needed. Combined with the included programmable fuel transfer switch and pump, this makes it easy to "fill a friend" in a pinch during remote travel.
Is this compatible with 4Runner model years other than 2025-current?
This specific kit is designed for 2025 and newer Toyota 4Runners. Helivue Design also makes auxiliary fuel tank systems for earlier 4Runner generations (2003-2009, 2010-2022, and 2023-2024), so be sure to select the kit that matches your exact model year.
