Anyone recognize my 23 gallon tank?

[Bitch'nBronco]

Hello, I'd like to replace the sender on my 23 gallon tank purchased by the PO. I looked at most of the vendors tanks and this one looks different from them. Also, does the fuel hose routing look correct? I think the 2 smaller tubes are for evap and the outlet on top of the tank should be the pickup. Right now it looks like the pickup is hooked to one evap and then the other evap gets connected to the fuel pump. Thanks in advance

As homemade as they come I think.

Here are some pictures of the sender itself

Looks like an old aero tank because of the round corners

The mounting system also makes me think Aerotank.

Aerotank to me

I think others are right about the aero tank. The sender looks to be a standard 5 hole sae pattern, so you can probably use any sender with a 5 hole flange. Including the tube style "floatless" senders. The main thing is you need one with the correct ~75-10 ohm resistance assuming you have stock type gage

Thanks for your help!

My thoughts exactly. As well as the brackets

Looks like my Aero tank. I installed it in 1980 along with the aux tank. They're both still there, and the gauges still work.

Probably just a universal-fit sender with the correct Ford ohm range would work. But you can likely get new ones from Aero as well.
Pretty sure you have to cut and "custom fit" the senders to the tank even when you buy them as a set (comes with the tank) so makes me think universal.

If you can't find one (although they should be just about everywhere) we have them for the NWMP/Sunset tanks here: https://www.wildhorses4x4.com/product/NWMP_Fuel_Tank_Sending_Unit/Bronco_Steel_Fuel_Tanks
The pic makes it look like we cut them down too short, but it's the same pic as the one for the 12g side tank too.
Likely just the same pic, but just to be sure we could check if you needed the confirmation. Or just to make sure you get an unmolested unit.

Thanks paul, I'll be giving you all a call in the next week or two.

I’ve been using these lately in the last couple that I have done. They’re adjustable for different tank dimensions, works slick!! Just make sure you pick the 73-10 Ohms, when running the stock fuel gauge.

.. I think I'll sign onto this post. As I've never had a fuel gauge that works.
