    Question Frontrunner Inner Guard Fuel Tank for Defenders - Fuel Capacity??

    Guys..

    The Frontrunner website claims this tank has a capacity of 45ltrs... From the way its designed and from my rough calcs, I cannot see how it can be the 45ltrs... maybe 40 or 41ltrs at most.
    I've never really liked the design of it, especially with the large bung protruding out where there is the potential for the tyres to grab it on the up travel, especially if u are running larger tyres. Anyhow, I've had to remove mine to do a bit of maintenance on the main tank so while the Frontrunner tank is out I'm hopefully going to try and find someone to modify the tank and remove the large bung (blank it off) and then add a couple of threaded points to the top of the tank to help make the tank breathe better and where I can tap into to pump fuel from my sill tank to into the main tank. Adding these to points at the top may very well also enable me to get a bit more usable capacity out of the tank as well...

    Questions - Has anyone tested/proved the fuel capacity of the front runner tanks? I believe the main tanks in the pumas (110) are 73ltrs so that should equate to 118ltrs in total ??

    Reinstallation of Frontrunner Tank and Main Fuel Tank - Which may would it be easier to do - Install Frontrunner tank first, then the Main Tank or Main Tank first, then the Frontrunner Tank? (I've read some posts where guys have had a difficult time when they first installed the tanks and it got me wondering if it would be easier to install the Frontrunner 1st then the main tank 2nd ??
