Seen it on many vn's, wondering how they do it.. I had a look underneath my car saw a few bars going across. Anybody know how to do it step by step.. Last thing i would want is the tank to slam onto the grond and rip anything with it down... :bop: I also have a towbar, wondering if that will make it any difficult.. Can take pics if you need to see how it is under-there.
dude, there is a difference between a drop tank & lowering your petrol tank, one is logical one is stupid, you work it out Cheers Mat
ha ha ha ha ha funniest thing i ever heard lol if you lower your tank that car will be worth a mint 1 of a kind in fact prob the only one in the world bud :yeah:
Whats with all the thread digging. Another 4 yo thread that really shoudn't have been dug up! For the record, those cars are using the 80L tank, which has different straps, and hangs lower. You can get a custom tank made like i am, which will look like a drop tank!
yuo can also get a cover that will fit over your pissy 60L tank making it look like a drop tank dont ask me where to get it from cos ive never had to look for one
:thumbsup: got one of that fools every idiot, stainless steel petrol tank cover problem is u can hear the honkie nuts that flick up
About 80ltr fuel tanks. I have a VN V6 Calais and it only had a standard V6 tank in it so I purchased an 80ltr from the wreckers and fitted it myself. you must drain the old tank before installing the larger one, make you get the correct tank straps to suite it. I fitted the tank by myself and didn't find it too difficult. Not all Calais came out with an 80ltr tank, only came out in the V8's and was only an option in the V6's. My 80ltr came from a VQ Statesman, but the straps were wrong so I had to hunt the wright ones up, all has worked out ok with the conversion. It now gives me a longer country fuel range, less stops between fill ups, it's great. I hope that this imformation will be of some help to you. Cheers. Bob...
I forgot to mention that I am also running a genuine external fuel pump aswel as the internal fuel pump. The internal fuel pump is a low pressure pump and the external fuel pump is a high pressure pump. Both fuel pumps came from the VQ Statesman. I purchased the tank and fuel pumps from the wreckers, from the same car. Cheers. Bob...
