Is there a glue that i can use to fix a crack in my tank till i can get my aluminum guard and new tank? I hit a rock and cracked it.
 
I have used a hot glue gun to fix a very small hole, it lasted a few days, then I got my new tank.
 
I would think if it's much of a crack, you will be down.
 
been there done that.. and way tired of the half tank lean.. So we went to a mid tank.. now its a completly different truck...

Damn Skip you have changes the whole layout of that rig. I see you have moved your electronis to allow the Mid tank mod. Pretty trick! I am sure there are others that are interested in your mods. Can you post any info up for our members?

Great job!!
 
you can fix it with a soldering gun and some plastic from the splash guard.

just check it when your done for leaks i have done it to many tanks at the track when i was in a bind, if pics arent descriptive enough jsut ask and ill explain what to do
