REAR CORNERS OF THE FUEL TANK CORRODE DUE TO DESIGN OF TANK AND TANK MOUNT, TANK PROTECTION ARMOUR. DIRT, MOISTURE, MUD, ROAD SALT, ETC GET TRAPPED IN BETWEEN STEEL TANK AND STEEL CRADLE AND TANK CORRODES. THIS CAUSES PIN HOLES IN THE TANK, AND EVENTUALLY LARGER HOLES, OR LARGER AREAS OF WEAK CORRODED METAL.

DESIGN TRAPS CRUD BETWEEN THE SKID PLATE AND FUEL TANK. OVER TIME, REMOVES THE PAINT AND CAUSES CORROSION. HOLE IN FUEL TANK CAUSES LOSS OF FUEL.
