Gday i have bought a 91 maverick lwb. I have a dual tank set up on my swb mq patrol and wondering if it would be the same set up for an easy changeover or will i have to get mounts made up??

Hi Might not help you but I made up 2 tanks recentley to fit under the belly. They worked out real sweet.

The prop shaft runs through the middle. Clears nicely. The exhaust runs above the propshaft. The bungs are for pick-up and breather. Fillers join at a T-piece that runs up to filler neck. The pumps will fill the main tank.
These give me an extra 110liters. They're made of 4.5mm Alu.

The front hangs on the tube cross member behind the transfer case and then I welded brackets on the the front mount fo the upper control arms. It all worked out really nicely. The body lifts up exactly where I wanted to put the filler and pumps, so there is a nice space for it.

If I can get it on a lift I'll take some pics. If anybody wants the CAD files I can send them through.
