Installing a RDS Aluminum Transfer Fuel Tank

[@bennycooper5147]

This is one of the best things I added for towing our 5th wheel. I have one of RDS tanks with the toolbox on the top and the fuel in the bottom. It carries around 60 gallons. One suggestion you might add is some type of filter on your vent hose. I added a lawnmower filter to mine to prevent dust and insects from getting into the hose. With my set up we can travel over 900 miles without stopping for fuel if necessary. Love your videos!

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks Benny. Used a couple of times now. Don’t know why I didn’t add sooner. Thanks for the filter tip.

[@danmeade2950]

One of my favorite mods that I did to my truck! Great job Jerry! After a few trips I got tired of stopping and getting out of the truck to open the valve. If you have the upfitter switches, I wired a magnetic ball valve to one switch and just leave the valve open. Now when I need to refuel, I just hit my upfitter switch while driving.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thinking about the switch. Used twice now. Flip the valve open about 3 hours into the trip. The tanks is at 1/2 to 3/4 when we reach the campground.

[@mikezaloudek4893]

Is there any risk of over filling the tank below?

[@iLoveRVlife]

Hi Mike. The inline ball valve added to the fill tube prevents over filling.

[@mikezaloudek4893]

@@iLoveRVlife I'll have to watch it again, so even if you filled both tanks and immediately opened the valve for the upper tank, the flow would stop before overfilling the lower?

[@iLoveRVlife]

It does. No issues. The only issue is placement of the ball valve in the filler tube. There is an upright position position with the hose from the aux tank must be at the top to work.

[@jerrykuster7672]

Great video Jerry! Your a natural to this video making 👍 I have a auxiliary fuel tank on my ram 3500 and it is a blessing!! I also have the TSD Logistics EFS RV fuel card for discount fuel at many truck stops. Looking forward to your updates on how the new tank and 5 th wheel are doing!! Safe travels and thank you!!🇺🇸🇨🇦

[@iLoveRVlife]

I have a TDS card. Big savings along the way. Still saw $.30 to $.40 savings purchasing at a Murphy if close by. We’ll have a video on both soon. So far, so good!

[@chucknSC]

Jerry- when I did mine I found fuel was very slow to drain down. What I found ( on my Chevy) was that there is no way for air to get out of the truck tank so that new fuel can enter. That’s because the truck fuel cap ( which is on the filler neck) only lets air IN , not out. ( in design they assumed you’d have the cap removed when filling, silly engineers). I needed to cut the truck vent hose and connect another hose to either the transfer tank or to atmosphere. By doing this the fuel and air in your truck tank just exchange. I can also leave the valve open and it just keeps the truck tank full as I drive and I don’t have to stop to open the valve. I also added a fuel filter between the tanks to catch trash or condensation from in the transfer tank. It’s a fantastic upgrade-you’ll love it.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks for the tip. This may be Chevy specific. On the F350 I haven’t had an issue. I turn the valve on when the primary tank is around half full. With burn rate, the tank is between half to three quarters at the end of the trip.

[@sylviahartman2229]

We just watched this. Great idea. Anytime we can save money. We also use the EFS card. We have saved money there. Nicely done.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks we have an EFS card too. If I can find a Murphy before we head out, still my end up,with a $.20 to $.30 a gal savings.

My friend you have just done what I’ve wanted to do for two years. After watching you I’m going to go buy this. My goal is to not having to stop for fuel with the trailer hooked up, there is usually a place to get fuel near the parks we might be at. I have a one ton ram and it only has a 27 gal fuel tank.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Nathan, with that small tank an auxiliary tank will be a game changer. Bought Murphy diesel on Wednesday. Saw a $.60 plus per gal increase on the interstate today. Plus, had to drive 7.5 hours. On these long tows, great saving that 30+ minutes not going the the truck stop fuel lane.

[@bishopgeorge1333]

Thanks. I wish I had a 50 gal main.

[@Squanto9]

Thanks. I picked up some tips here. I recommend anyone installing a tank like this to watch several videos to pick up different tips from different installers. Funniest moment about 10:30. "I'm going to barely, barely, barely pop through the sheet metal to be ever so careful..." And then you ram the drill 2 inches through. Hahaha. It's been a year since this video. Could you add a bit of a review by taking the bolts out to see how the holes look? I'm curious if vibrations and driving have caused damage to the holes or the bolt threads. Any corrosion from the aluminum bed/steel bolts?

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks for watching. No corrosion or changes in the holes. The springs keep tension on the bolts and expect that helps.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Glad we could share. We’ve just made two 9 hour tows. Fuel mileage avenge 11mpg. Usually open fill valve at half or a little less in the main tank. Gravity feed is a little faster than burn rate. Has been working well.

[@terryhaynes1596]

I also purchased and installed a 60 gallon RDS aux fuel tank in my 2019 Ram 3500. Excellent product. I also have the BakFlip tonneau cover. I added a fuel filter between the tank and filler. Unfortunately my filler was metal and I had to do some serious steel cutting in a very confined space. Very stressful job and it took a lot of time. But it is installed and working.

[@mikechertude5864]

Something to think about when adding an extra tank is payload. While you have a dually and payload may not be a problem for your truck, some are close to maxed out and adding over 400lbs in your case could be unwise. Thanks for the videos!

Great Job!! Joan makes a great assistant and is much more patient than my wife...I'm purchasing a gas Super Duty this year to tow a smaller 5th wheel. Similar tanks (some with tool boxes attached) are available for gas models as well. I believe that you must use a transfer tank (with pump and nozzle) for gas as it is illegal to connect an auxiliary tank directly to a gas fuel system.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks Eric. DOT regs are different for gas. Joan’s always great to help.

[@davedirren3109]

As long as the check valve is placed at the top of the fill tube it will shut off when the fill neck fills with fuel. It kinda looked like this was mounted on side which could be an issue. Simple fix though, just loosen the 2 hose clamps holding the connection in place and turn the brass check valve up to the top side of the fill tube.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Agree. It’s the camera angle. So far, so good.

[@biglug9364]

Hey Jerry just wanted to let you know I live in California I've had a fuel box in my truck for several years where I live it is illegal to have gravity feed fuel from your auxiliary to your main tank they come with a pump that pumps the fuel out of the top of the tank which works great has a little computer that recognize when the bottom tank is getting low and automatically turns on and start pumping fuel great instructional video you did I always enjoy your DIY videos

Great video. 👍

Thanks Rick. We’ve used recently on 3 long trips. Working great. Still gravity feed. We wait till about half full on the main tank. That about 3 to 4 hours down the road.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks for watching. For our F350, cutting the filler tube wasn't a big deal and the kit was a perfect fit. Currently in GA and diesel is swinging from $4.65 to $4.99 on the side streets and over $5 on the Interstate. We're still going to travel, but we'll have to make some adjustments some where.

[@FISHH00KS]

In your blog, you wrote "This is a gravity feed application, and found the slow drain from the tank matched the remaining trip mileage". That doesn't sound right. A 1/4" line should drain much faster than 1 gallon every 10 minutes. I noticed you did not orient the ball valve vertically as you had mentioned as necessary earlier in the video. What effect does the orientation of the ball valve have on the flow rate of the fuel? (I have a tank with a pump that I use to transfer heating fuel, but am considering adapting to gravity feed for the truck). BTW - I can buy heating fuel for 3.30/gal or have it delivered for $5.60/gal and my set-up paid for itself in one winter. You were. I thought I would reinforce your statement about cost savings in the long run. Thank you for taking the time to make and post this video.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks. The ball valve angle was shown for the video. It’s vertical. It drains faster. Not sure what the exact rate is, but wanted to share that it would keep up with the trip. I didn’t want to add a pump with wiring if it wasn’t necessary. Works great as is. Good tip on the heating fuel.

Jerry thank you for the video I also have a 350 and have been thinking of doing the same thing I do have a question… can you turn the tank in the on position and leave it on all the time? or would it over flow?

[@iLoveRVlife]

There are reports you can with no issues and others state there’s over flow issues. There’s a ball valve that should prevent. I’ve made two trips with the tank so far. About 3 to 4 hours into a trip, I stop for leg stretch and bathroom break. I’m around a half a tank at this stage. I open the valve for the remainder of the trip. With burn rate the tank will stay around a half for the remainder of the trip.

[@armedprophet3321]

Why didn’t you go for the electric fuel pump addition or a 12 volt solenoid valve for diesel fuel so you can do your fuel transfer while driving ? Also how long does it take for the gravity feed system to bring you up to full when you are at say 1/4 tank ? Great job by the way. I just retired from the fire department and am looking to do some traveling soon. Thank you for your time in making this video.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Thanks and good question. We’ve logged over 3,000 miles since the tank install. We found gravity feed works with no issues. I’ve used the main tank to almost 1/4 and turned on. Gravity feed has been higher than burn rate at 10 miles p/gal. We recently had two 9 hour tows. I turned on before we left. The main tank remained full until we burned over 50 gal. The ball valve worked great and didn’t over fill the tank. At this stage, haven’t need a pump.

[@davidc1961utube]

I totally get this from the convenience and range points of view. At my age though, my bladder will not go more than about 4 or 5 hours. I wonder did you consider your mileage decrease from adding over 400 pounds to the truck? maybe only .5mpg or so, but might extend your payback. Given price differences of $.50 per gallon between states though, payback could be sooner!

[@chucknSC]

Stopping to empty your bladder is much easier than pulling a fifth wheel into a gas station. I now stop and pee in the camper bathroom , get a snack and then resume driving. Adding 500 pounds to a rig that weighs over 20,000 isn’t noticeable.

[@pigybak]

👍 bladder. Gotta stop anyway might as well gas up.

[@davidc1961utube]

@@chucknSC Fair enough on the pee, but you still have to pull off the highway someplace safe. I was thinking the weight would be more relevant when not towing. Into town for provisions, to and from work for the employed people, etc.

[@iLoveRVlife]

David, with mileage was the same. With the 26,000 lb tow capacity, the additional weight wasn’t significant. Plus half way into the trip, I’m starting to use fuel, so weight is reducing as we continue the trip. We stop around 3 hours too. This is when I open the valve to start adding to the main tank. Payback has started. Interstate diesel was $.60 plus more per gallon than what I purchased at a Murphy.

[@iLoveRVlife]

Potty break is one thing. Paying $.60 per gal more for truck stop diesel now is a thing of the past.

[@thomasbumgardner6970]

Do you keep the valve open and the tank gravity fills as your driving? I had an aux tank in another truck but it had its own pump would auto fill the factory tank.

[@iLoveRVlife]

I wait till the main tank is around half full. This usually is about 3 hours or so into the trip. We usually pull into a rest stop for a leg stretch. I turn on the valve and this will trickle until I get to the campground. With burn rate, the tank will end up at 3/4 full when we finally stop.

@@iLoveRVlife Hi Jerry. Are you still happy with the aux tank after two years? I'd installed a 60gal RDS tank with gravity feed in my '21 Ram. I always kept the RDS tank valve open and had no problems with that.... until recently. The last fill up started overfilling the OEM tank and making a puddle under the truck. So I guess I'll have to start doing it the way you do. Any suggestions otherwise?

[@iLoveRVlife]

No problems. I’ve done both off and on at the start with no issues. I suspect the ball valve you installed in the feeder neck is malfunctioning. Give it a few easy taps with a hammer with the tank turned off to see if it releases. It needs to be straight up with the hose on top to work best.

Question: wondering about leaves or acorns getting under the tank and rotting, etc. Any thoughts about that? Thanks for the video Jerry.

Don’t think there’s enough room for acorns. We have a cover that we close when we get to campground. If we see any build up, a good squirt with the water hose should take care of things.
