Just wondering if anyones toyed with the idea of a larger capacity fuel tank for a wide track hard top? or if there's tanks from other cars that could fit in? I've got a 2' body lift as well.

Thanks

you can buy long range fuel tanks from Brown davis and the Long ranger. I think ARB sell them

I have a 60L tank from a Nissan 260C fitted to my LWB ute, behind the seats, on the floor. Probly not suited to a swb hard top. My mate uses a 60L fuel cell (plastic race tank) from good race shops. These come in many sizes and shapes. A long range tank is available for sierras I believe, guessing not cheap. christover

A tank from a vit will fit between the chassis rail, in front of the diff, with a bit of massaging. I got a seventy litre tank in mine, but when above the rails (no back floor)
