Anyone who has ever worked on an aging vehicle knows how brittle plastic pieces in the engine bay can become.
However, the stock expansion tank for the 2011-2014 F-150 probably won't last long enough for you to worry about aging plastic.
If you are like many owners of the 2011-2014 F-150, you may have already replaced your expansion tank multiple times due to a leaking quick-disconnect fitting located at the bottom of the tank.
Nishimoto's solution is to start by constructing the tank from stronger and more durable aluminum, then completely eliminate the quick disconnect.
Included with this Nishimoto expansion tank is a silicone hose and a CNC-machined coupler.
With minimal modification to the stock hose, this kit allows you to remove the leak-prone quick-disconnect fitting and clamp on a reliable silicone hose that lasts a lifetime.
The Nishimoto expansion tank for the 2011-2014 Ford F-150 is available in either a natural finish or micro-wrinkle black, allowing for easy customization through anodizing, powder-coating, or hydro-dipping.
The expansion tank also features an easy-to-read sight tube for quick coolant level checks, eliminating the need to shine a light through a yellowed plastic tank.
Of course, the Lifetime warranty ensures that you will never have to worry about seeing an ugly, leaking, plastic expansion tank on your 2011-2014 Ford F-150 again.
