yep they will fit, only thing I want to check is whether you can use/adapt the VS filler neck or do you need to cut the filler neck off the old tank and use it ?

Should fit fine as long as the vs was live axle otherwise you need to change tank straps and rear suspension. Filler neck goes in but you need to cut down the rubber pipe that joins the filler and the tank. cheers ben

you can use 1 vs stray one needs to be cut and shut with the VK one.
Also you need to make a hose aapter fo the fuel tank vent to step down the venton the filler neck or getone off a VL

cut the filler neck off a VL tank that way the vent hose will be the correct size., the VN and later filler necks have a larger diameter vent hose

cheers
