(1/3) > >>

v8rangie:
right im going to be bobtailing my rangie very soon and was wondering what bits do i need.
i.e. which fuel tank etc fuel sender so guage still works.

way2deep:
to save a lot a hassle best use the original put it inside the boot   :D

iomlr:
series two tank will fit nicely with a external fuel pump, something of a xr2i or simular would do. i found this picture,

electricbluebadger:
The series tanks work well although i would have mounted in reverse and routed the filler through the 'C'post using the original rangey filler cap assembly, did this on one of my bobs and it looked spot on.

Hi level filler....



Also Mini tanks work well as they fit over the arch in much the same way as they fit in the boot of a mini saloon, especially if you can get one for each side although the d/s tanks are rare

My original bob had a custom tank that fit perfectly behind the rear seats so I was still able to keep a rear seat... you can just see it in the pic covered in reflective insulation, front of the tank sloped to follow the rake of the rear seat and it was fitted on runners to ensure an air gap underneath.



an earlier pic before chopping off the roof



Cheers Steve

v8rangie:
Think its gonna be easier to use the original so all connections and senders are already there.

just make sure its in solid and route the filler in a good place.
