Couple of weeks ago i picked up a new Front Runner 80 litre long range fuel tank.
Came with all fixings and a Facet fuel pump.
The instructions however aren't very clear and are in black/white which doesn't help matters.

I know many will have fitted second fuel tanks so wondering if anyone has made up a guide for fitting them.

Picture of said tank beside Alfie the labrador who doesn't seem overly impressed with it...

Im sure somebody will be along soon with the advice.
Im yet to buy one,they are VERY popular in AWEstralia mainly due to our long distances and the marginal fuel range on these vehicles once a caravan is in tow.Toyotas come with large capacity tanks,I guess they need them,they drink plenty many much more than us:twisted::twisted::twisted::twisted::twisted:

Here's a colour picture guide for a Dolium 80L tank. Not sure how different the two are but it might help to fill the blanks for you.

That's excellent!

It's got some pictures and the cutting measurements that are the same as what my instructions have so they all must follow similar installation routes.

However, in colour it makes much more sense.

Thank you for the link.
