Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have a fj45 with a 6 cylinder diesel and would like a greater mileage range between refuelling. Can anyone tell me if I should mount the second tank by strapping it to the bottom of the aluminium tray or should I secure it to the chassis rail. If anyone has information would be greatly appreciated.

i had one in my shorty diesel wich i just took out and it was mounted to the chassi rail it was a 60 or 65 ltr tank it sat high and it never got hit when i was wheelin about

if you mount it to the alloy tray the alloy will eventually fatigue and n fall out as well as stuff your tray maybe a bit different if you put large plates either side of the tray tho

I have a fj 45 ute that i am slowly getting rid of that has the fuel tank up underneath the tray toward the rear.

Hi, Zeyphly can u tell me how it was attached to the tray? I was thinking that maybe I can attach my tank to the steel rails on the tray.

so not underseat in 45s?

45 fuel tanks changed position rom under the seat to under the cab in 1978

I have a FJ45 with a 200 litre tank that is strapped under the tray. I have had it full and been bushbashing and have never had any trouble with it. The bolts used are cup heads.

Hi joe fj45 yer, 200 litre is a good size. Do u know where It came from. Its about the size I am looking for. How is it strapped to the tray. Any pixs would be good

sorry Darrenfj40, the tank was on it when i bought it, if i can work out how to put photos on here i will sent you them.
