Default Jeep surge tank

I got my coolant tank from macs radiator and this is my review. I noticed jeepers were saying when they got their tank they did not notice on the website it had a overflow at the filler cap. I had tried to contact them on their website and four contacts later no response. I then called them and was transfered to Mike and asked him if they could seal it. He took my order without payment and I had him email me. Got the email and then called them up again to pay. I got it two days later but...they forgot the radiator cap. Emailed them and he said sorry and sent one out. I feel I took a risk but they took care of me
Now I have an aluminum coolant tank and getting rid of the plastic one for good. Total price $144 to my door.

I wouldn't spend the money on that based on the welding alone.

looks cheesy and i think that is a not needed mod unless you have a mall crawler and want a pretty engine bay

If you have the plastic pressure bottle and have seen it inflate then you know this is a good buy. I live at high elevation and travel down alot. Air in the system almost made the pressure bottle burst and it is brand new. The looks of it have nothing to do with the purchase its the strength of it and the 16 lb. Cap that I liked and other jeepers have said no more overheating with this item.
