Description

New for 2022!

If your one of the unfortunate to have a broken OEM expansion tank and cannot find options or are finding used options are being price gouged, King6fab has a solution for you.

I have been working on this design for quite a while with another Mx6 enthusiast to narrow down a near direct OEM replacement design.  

If you would like to see the progression of that project, he has well documented it on his website here. 

Whats new with the V3 Design?

  • 2.0 OD x .120wa 5052 Aluminum Tubing
  • The tank has been shortened on the top and bottom to closer reflect the OEM position
  • End Caps are end welded on the ends instead of the sides to enabled it to slide into the 3d printed bracket

Options:

Tank Only – Select this option if you will be printing the bracket yourself.  You will receive only the expansion tank. 

Tank with Printed Bracket – Select this option for a complete setup. I print these brackets in ASA Filament at 20% Subcubic Infill for maximum strength.

 

The 3d Printed Bracket:

This slide in bracket aids in easy fitting and requires no additional fasteners.  Simply slide the V3 Tank into the bracket and the weight of the hoses will keep it from popping out.

Benefits:

  • If your bracket becomes damaged, you can print another.
  • Modify the bracket to fit your needs.
  • Print with more infill for a stronger bracket.
