55 Litre Poly Diesel Tank with Gravity or Pump Feed by Boab

The Boab 55 litre poly diesel tank is a drop-in way to carry more diesel on a ute tray or in a built-in setup, without major modifications or a big spend. It holds 55 litres, weighs 6kg and runs on a simple gravity feed or through a pump, so you can plumb it to suit how your rig is laid out.

The shape does a lot of the work. At 1120mm long, 195mm wide and 310mm high, this long, slim tank is made for ute trays, built-in and other applications. It comes with a screw cap filler, a brass vent and a brass outlet that takes 10mm hose.

Made from yellow polyethylene, the FTP55U is part of Boab's poly diesel tank range and a straightforward way to extend your vehicle's range for longer trips between fuel stops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a poly tank hold diesel?

Yes. The FTP55U is a polyethylene diesel tank, sold by Boab as a poly diesel tank for ute tray, built-in and other applications. Use it for diesel and install it following the manufacturer's instructions.

What are the dimensions of the Boab 55 litre diesel tank?

The FTP55U measures 310mm high, 195mm wide and 1120mm long, with a total weight of 6kg. Measure your tray or built-in space against those figures before ordering.

What does universal fit mean for this tank?

It is not made for one specific vehicle. The tank is designed for ute trays, built-in and other applications, so fitment comes down to your available space against its 310mm x 195mm x 1120mm dimensions.

Does this tank need a pump, or will gravity feed work?

Both are supported. Gravity feed relies on the tank sitting higher than the point the fuel is drawn to; where that isn't possible, a pump can be used instead. We recommend a qualified installer for any connection to your vehicle's fuel system.

What fittings come with the FTP55U, and what hose size does it take?

The tank is supplied with a screw cap filler, a brass vent and a brass outlet for 10mm hose. Fuel hose, clamps and any pump are not included, so plan for those as part of your install.

What warranty does the Boab 55 litre diesel tank carry?

The FTP55U comes with a 12 month warranty, covered under the manufacturer's warranty terms.

Is the Boab 55 litre tank hard to install?

Boab designs it as a drop-in installation, so no major vehicle modifications are needed. Securing and plumbing the tank depends on your setup; refer to the manufacturer's instructions or consult a qualified installer for your specific application.

Short on tray length, or after a different shape? The Boab 58 litre flat or vertical tank and the 40 litre double jerry can tank are worth a look, or compare the full Boab fuel tank range alongside the rest of our fuel tanks.

Why Shop With Us

Why Shop at 4x4 Down Under?

We know that you have a lot of options out there, and we’re incredibly grateful that you’re considering spending your hard earned money with us. We like to think we stand out from the crowd in a few ways.

Excellent & Honest Service

We try and provide the best pre and after sales service possible. If you have a question we’re here to help, and if we don’t know the answer we’ll tell you and then do our absolute best to find the answer for you. We’re also here to guide you to the best possible outcome for you. A lot of stores will simply try to up-sell you on the most expensive option. That’s not how we operate. We want to build a relationship with our customers, and the only way to do that is by being honest and direct.

4x4 Down Under is built on honesty and integrity. For example when you make a purchase with us we only charge your account once we confirm the product is ready for dispatch. Although we like to guarantee everything on our store is available we’re not perfect and mistakes do happen. If something turns out to not be available we’ll let you know immediately and you have the option to cancel your order or wait for more stock to arrive. Should you not want to wait the order is voided, and there’s no waiting a week to get your money back (it’s instant!).

Aussie and Proud!

We're Australians, and we like to support our fellow Australians, which is why all our products are sourced locally from the official Australian distributors. Nothing is imported directly and we don't stock any grey imports. This also means that all manufacturer warranties are fully honored by the brands themselves.

No Sales Gimmicks 

When you shop at 4x4 Down Under you don’t have to worry about:
  • Annoying and dishonest ’Sales Timers’ that simply reset every few hours and are there to coerce you into buying.
  • Dishonest “low stock” labels, another coercive sales gimmick.
  • False “John just bought a…” alerts. Our customer alerts (bottom left) are 100% true and we're proud of them.
  • Being bombarded by trust badges and labels everywhere you look that mean nothing. 
  • We don't spam! Your information is safe with us. It will never be shared or sold, or used to fill your inbox with garbage.

Fast Shipping with Insurance!

We've partnered with some of Australia's best couriers and freight agents to ensure your purchase reaches you in super-quick time. Once your order has been dispatched you'll receive tracking information which will allow you to track your order online every step of the way. And if something should happen to your order while in transit you can rest assured that it's insured and you won't lose a dime!

If you still have any doubts feel free to give us a call on 1300 76 86 41, or contact us here. We'd love to hear from you.

Orders are usually dispatched within 1-3 business days. Should there be any delays we will let you know immediately.

These delivery services should have your item delivered to your door within 2 - 10 working days depending on your location. In some cases where the address is based in the more regional parts of Australia this may take longer. Should the delivery time take longer than we would like we will let you know.

As soon as the item has been shipped we will provide you with a tracking number via email. You can then use this number to watch your item make it's way toward your location. It should also give you a clear idea of when to expect your item.

Depending on the item we may contact you to arrange delivery. In order to ensure your purchase lands in the correct hands we will require a signature from you on delivery. If you are not home on delivery the postman/courier will leave a card with collection details.

Please feel free to contact us should you want to make alternate arrangements for delivery. We’re flexible and here to help.
