Re: Coolant Overflow Tank - Factory in 72?

Wonder where you'd mount a GM tank with an aux battery setup....opposite fender avoiding the J-blocks?

I picked up a tank (not original) from scrap yard and mounted on fender well, same side as overflow.

Wouldn't the original cap work? It also allows coolant to escape. All the tank does is capture the overflow. Unless the return flow requires something different.

Re: Coolant Overflow Tank - Factory in 72?

If an aux battery truck, that's mounted in place of the washer fluid bottle. With an aux battery there is no good place for a coolant overflow tank - I wanted both but my overflow tank is sitting in a box and was never installed. Maybe the washer fluid bottle could be rigged for use on the LH fender and the overflow tank as shown above.

Here is the washer reservoir. It was a big block with aux battery, camper wiring as well.

Re: Coolant Overflow Tank - Factory in 72?

Any chance the overflow tank is listed on SPID together with the aux battery? Seems like a nicely optioned truck...
