    I haven't, but I have watched the you tube videos of the testing that goes into them from the manufacture, they seem like a really well built tank that looks exactly like one from KW. I don't think you will find a better price on them either.

    I wouldn't buy a pair of socks from them, don't know about there tanks but there body shop is a joke, RIPPED me off thousands of dollars and didn't have anything in righting on a quote, they charged me 40 hours to put a used fifth wheel on, only to find out that it was shot, any way they do ###### work, STAY AWAY, also bought some new kw tank supports and the paint peeled off with my finger nail. after painting, I went to put them on and the bolts were 3/8 of a inch off from frame bolts, what a joke!!

    Yeah, first place I look for a tank if I need to replace one is a boneyard. I am partial to Vanderhaag's in Iowa. They have a broad network of locations and can locate and have brought to me just about anything that is on just about any truck. They commonly have new take off tanks that, for some reason, the owner that had the trucks didn't want. Basically brand new OEM tanks. I got one for my last truck at roughly 50% the cost of going to the OEM. Had it buffed out and painted to match my other one.
