Ron,


My original tank is very rusty, and I would love a larger one to replace it.
However, the ground clearance is definitely an issue for me. Do you have
the dimensions of the tank? Is the 2.5" less clearance based on the tank
itself, or the protective guard for the valve? On the stock tank, I think the
guard hangs lower than the actual tank, but this may not be the case for the
larger one?
