Well not sure what the largest is - use to have one with 120l tank - ORE brand I think, but sure there are others. I think it is also possible to bolt on another standard 70L(?) tank to make 140L - unsure about details.
Cheers
Greg

I fitted one to my Hilux some time ago using another tank of the same model. I just turned it around and mounted it on bits that were already there. I put in a switch that changed over the guage and the tap at the same time. It worked just fine, I did have to re-route the exhaust pipe a bit and that was done at the same tme. Fairly easy if I remember rightly. The Hi lux is long gone, about five cars ago.

G'day Bob,
I have the 2004 Dual Cab Hilux and had ARB
Rockhampton fit a 116L tank in place of the standard one, the tank cost $830, fitting cost $210 and Compliance Plate (QLD) was another $66. I thought I got a pretty price at the time, along with all the other gear I got put on.
I have heard others mention 120L tanks but I couldn't find anyone that sold them when I looking.
Regards,
Jason
