One of my tanks has developed a small leak in the diesel tank.  I can see that the deck must be cut and lifted, tanks removed,  and new ones fabbed or current ones repaired.  Has anyone here done this job already?

Questions I Have are:

What did it cost?
How long did it take?
Are any of the poly tanks from newer tiaras able to be retrofitted if I want to avoid aluminum?
Though all will say to replace,  has anyone added full walls of aluminum to the exterior of current tanks to repair instead of replace?  These are complex structures that support the deck and holes must be perfect so I’d love to keep the current tanks in some fashion.
Is there any coating for the exterior of these tanks that is useful to bulletproof them so this doesn’t reoccur in the future?   I’ve heard Linux Bedliner mentioned or?

Thanks for sharing your experience.
