Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi, just got one of these and did a trial fitup to see how it all sat.
Firstly it runs about 10-15 mm from the tailshaft - is that normal and acceptable?
Secondly a corner next to the expansion tank rear, drivers side, clashes with the factory metal fuel lines preventing the back of the tank from being lifted into place by about 50mm Anybody else had this trouble?
Looking right now like i'm goint to have to cut the corner out of the tank and weld it lower - or extend the rear brackets.

hi mate,
it can come over a bit furthur away from the tailshaft, its currently hitting on the lower control arm bolt, just hammer a dent in the tank so it comes over a bit more.

another reason why its closer is because your diff is not centred ( if you have a lift and the panhards are not adjusted correctly.

as for the fuel lines, you can bend them out of the way very easily,

Thanks for that, didn't consider the panhard, ive got 3", i'll measure tailshaft - chassis both sides tommorow and then decide on adj panhards, shouldn't be too much being only 3" but we'll see.
Didn't really want to bend the lines too much incase they kinked, as you said they bend easy i might bend them half the difference and space the rear tank mounts down the other half, emailed Paul Evans at LRA and part of his reply on fitment instructions was
"Due to chassis variations you may need to space the rear of the tank down slightly on some vehicles"
Confirming what my searches have told me LRA are more than helpful even though i got a 2nd hand tank, so i can reccomend their after sales service, this was mainly why i chose the LRA tank over others, pretty flawless reputation.
An interesting thing he told me for fitment
"There is a small gusset welded towards the RH rear of the tank location which has an 8mm hole drilled in it. Locate this hole and drill it out to 10mm then place a M10 x 30mm bolt in it"
I did read somewhere about somebody breaking an 8mm bolt so that must be the solution - should be a non issue as im using 10mm 12.9 socket head cap screws, didn't even bother calculating tensile as it should be more than enough!!
