[QUOTE="jeepmauler, post: 1144561, member: 16779"] Did you seal the inside of the cell? I just removed two steel cells from the tow rig.When Tom built the cells 8 years ago or so he did not seal them and w/in a year he was battleing internal rust issues.Then I bought the truck from Tom and had worse probs w/it as the rust spread,then I sold the truck to Big Mark and I'm sure it sucked for him too.I just purchased the truck back and replced the 50 gallons worth of old cells with a 32 gallon plastic cell and am stoked. As far as my buggy goes...Aluminum all the way:awesomework: I built my own 9 gal cell .125 al with a .25 bottom were it "could" come into contact with rocks.It has elaborate baffleing inside along with a captive sump that has NEVER let the pick up run dry.
