Still planning your van layout? Stop! and reevaluate, because the Ford Transit Wheel Well Water Tank is a game-changer! Besides fitting perfectly around those awkward wheel wells and providing a necessary freshwater supply, these tanks add additional sound proofing, so you can cruise down your favourite dirt roads without earplugs! The symmetric design of these tanks allows them to fit over either of your wheel wells interchangeably, giving you options. We also squared off the top to make the rest of your conversion a whole lot simpler.
Looking for a grey water tank to compliment your freshwater tank? Complete your water management system with our 17 Gallon Transit Undermount Water Tank and Aluminum Strapping Kit. The undermount tank fits snuggly under the driver's side of your van, and the strapping kit makes installation a breeze!
Key Features & Benefits:
-
Save Space - A unique way to make efficient use of that awkward wheel well area and shape.
- Perfectly Shaped - Not only do these tanks mold to the shape of your wheel well but the top and outside are also squared off to account for further building. Last we checked, it’s easier to build a square box than a round one.
- Build Options - These tanks are interchangeable between both wheel wells; you can fit this tank over whichever wheel well works best for your build. Need more water? Place one on either side of your van for mega-volume!
- Distributes Weight - Adds weight over your rear axle to help increase traction if you get in a sticky spot. No more slips and skids, not to mention unwanted wheel wear, thanks to the perfect weight distribution of these tanks.
- Sound Proofing - When it comes to road noise, these tanks step it up with added noise reduction around your wheel well.
- BPA-Free and Food Grade Approved - Feel safe knowing these tanks are food grade CSA approved! Wash the dishes, have a shower, fill the dog bowl, and stay hydrated, while exploring in your van!
-
Fittings Kit Add-On Available - Save yourself the headache and multiple trips to the plumbing store when you bundle this tank with our Freshwater Fittings Kit!

Strapping Kit Add-On Available - Weather-resistant strapping crafted from heavy-duty 1/8" thick, 1 1/2" wide aluminum. Simple and secure!
