Overview
The Titan Tanks 50 gallon extra capacity fuel tank, part number 7020211, is a midship replacement fuel tank for Ford diesel pickups with Crew Cab short bed bodies from 2011 to 2016. It may more than double the range of the original equipment tank.
The tank is constructed of military grade cross-linked polyethylene (XLHDPE) and is designed to look very similar to the original equipment tank. It comes complete with a zinc-coated steel mounting strap set, a cantilevered front support, extruded rubber mounting bushings and accessories.

- Cantilevered front support
- Extruded rubber mounting bushings

Midship tank installation basics
A midship tank sits between the frame rails, so access and clearance are the main concerns during installation. Before lowering the tank into place, check the cross members, exhaust routing and any shields for interference that could rub the tank wall over time.
The cantilevered front support and rubber bushings are meant to hold the tank steady while the straps carry the weight. Keep the bushings seated correctly, and check that straps are not twisted. Loose mounts can allow movement that stresses the fuel lines.
After installation and the first few drives, inspect the tank for scuffs where it contacts the frame or brackets, and check fuel and vent connections for seepage.
- Check exhaust and frame clearance before lowering the tank
- Keep rubber bushings seated and straps untwisted
- Inspect for scuffs and seepage after the first drives
