has anyone fitted, or know what petrol tank would fit under the passengers side of yn67 2/88 xtracab hilux, it is the same location as the drivers side. I am currently re-arranging things underneath and now have plenty of room in this spot the tank would need to be shorter than the factory one I'm thinking maybe a 2wd hilux one. Was going to go G.Q. tank but this space has been used for my new air tank.
cheers

Wouldn't it b easyer to fit a long range tank thats allready made to suit n stronger to take a beating off road than a standard tank ?

basically I dont think a long range tank will fit i have a raised driveline and i am almost cetrain that the driveshaft will not clear a long range tank. Also i want room to fit a track bar later should i need too.

Should fit ok, I've seen it done before!
You obviously have to make support brackets etc & can even use the original fuel guage as a switch will allow you to swap between sender units!
Just make sure you use a petrol pickup (the diesel has a return line).
