Why thank you  :lol: I'll see what I can do! I'll try to mix my subjects so that I get both of us, plus the Land Rover in as well!

The only point I can think of, is the possible clearance between tank & rear of the cross-member.
I had a feel around on mine as I was going to fit the 'Towing Loop', but even with the tank dropped there didn't feel to be room for the bolt head
& nut.

That did worry me, but I think I should be okay - the back end of a 90 is a bit different to a 110 (I hope!), so I should be okay. Not too keen on dropping the fuel tank, but should be okay as long as it's fairly empty!
The bolt and nut actually fit inside the cross member - therein lies the problem - so they shouldn't be in the way of the tank, as long as I can get a drill up behind it when the tank's on the floor!

Cheers

Ben

Be careful with the pipework for the in-tank fuel-pump/sender-unit.

When mine had a new pump the connectors leaked afterwards & needed a new section of pipework (& the tank relowering :roll: )

Ben:
Hmm. Sounds like it's more trouble than it's worth. Perhpas I should just put one on the replacement for the vRS when I get round to swapping them round. It's only for taking stuff to the tip anyway! Well, either that or hire a pick up!

Thanks

Ben
