Plastic Grey Water Tanks?

Hey guys

A friend of a friend of a friend… is currently with his rig in Baja Sur and his (supposedly) stainless steel water tanks start leaking and corroding.
Now he’s looking for a supplier of plastic water tanks that he can ship to me in the Bay Area, CA, and install them.

Any idea of further suppliers?

Class A customs has a nice assortment and is generally much cheaper than most other sources.

You can order custom (or stock) tanks from plastic mart online ......the tanks are fabricated by Ronco in Tustin, CA. They ship or you can pick them up if you are in So Cal.

I have one.... you specify the stock tank P/N (or custom dimensions) and provide a sketch of where and what size female NPT fittings you want and pay your $$.


Reach out to member 1der here....I think he is set up with this vendor to provide tanks at a bit of a discount.....it's been a while.

I’ve gotten a few tanks and parts from these guys too, same deal, pick a tank and specify where you want your fittings.

Similar to what others have offered, you can use the standard translucent fresh water tanks that are a dime a dozen on amazon for gray water. Keeps it super simple.

Hey guys. Topic is solved. He found the shop below where he and the owner welded his tank back up.

Thanks for your quick input though!
