engine overflow bottle

Has anyone replaced the coolant overflow bottle on a u320? Mine is showing stress cracks and I want to replace it. I know FT will have it just checking if there is another source.

I just did that a couple of months ago, Craneman.  After checking around multiple sources FT was the same price or better than most.

I was looking for the same yesterday and this is all I could find. 6 Quart Radiator Coolant Overflow Expansion Tank 2930-01-425-3824 Oshkosh... I don't know that they supply them outside of FT, so I'll be contacting them when the time comes to replace.

Thanks, I will order one after this 16 day trip. I put some Eternabond tape on it just incase.

Just remember FTs 25.00 min freight charge. At least that was what was a few years back
