Wet tank replacement
#6

Wet tank is in. Replacement was a bit longer and fit just right. I notched a couple of excess air bag perch steel corners to ensure vibrations would not slowly knick the tank. There was about 1/4" space and now there is 1/2". The new tank provided side entry bungs instead of the top making leak repairs much easier. I am in the process of replacing the air brake hoses as they are original. While in there, the tag axle brake chambers were easy enough to replace for good measure. So far so good. I wanted to add that I did install a new auto drain valve with a heater element which I will wire to a switch in the engine compartment panel board. There is also a manual drain valve that I located near the air dryer with a vent to the exterior.
