Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Does anyone know where I can get a pair of sill tanks, for my 82 Rangie??

I've got a pair sitting in my garage taking up some space.... Look to be homemade, and I think I worked out they'd hold a bit over 30 litres a side. Filler would be accessed through a hole in the rear footwell. From memory one side has had the mounting tags cut off in preparation for lifting them up to match the bodylift (so they didn't sit flush to the bottom of the chassis). should be no probs welding new tags on, the tanks have been empty for at least 2 years, and part of the old tag is still on the tank, making a good thick bit to weld too.

Make me an offer?

have you got any pics,I'm not sure what they look like or how they are fitted?

I don't at the moment, if you want I'll dig them out tomorrow night, take a couple of photos and email them through to you.

They are the same height as the chassis, are the same width as the distance between the outside of the chassis rail and the sill on the body, and run the length between the two chassis outriggers that the body mounts to (a few inches behind the front wheelarch, and a few inches in front of the rear wheelarch). They bolt to those two chassis outriggers at the ends, and i think they have two bolts that go into the chassis itself somewhere in the middle. Probably a lot clearer with photos, might sit one up under my rangie tomorrow night while I'm taking photos.

1 bracket uses 1 of the t/case mount bolts and the other you need to drill a hole and put a crush tube in.

I just emailed some pics to you.

yeah and keep in mind that the tanks for the RR dont fit a Disco necessarily due to the body brace that runs through in the disco.

Long Range Automotive mod Range Rover ones up with notches so they will fit a disco for about $150...

Ask me how I know....

Anyhow fair to say my $250 tanks are now worth $550!
