Reply With QuoteI had to replace the tank on my FFR as the old one was rusted through between the bottom and the bash plate
I had a standard tank filler point modified to fit by KLR
Fitted myself no leaks since

SubscriberThe under seat tank is not a great design when it’s filled from the bottom and 1/3 of the tank is above the fill point. It probably works better on the 2 door version. A steel fabricator will make a slightly heavier better tank than a new one. In saying that the old tank should be easily reparable. I used Redkote to seal the inside of mine about 5 years ago when it had multiple leak points.
Alternatively buy a plastic tank being sold on here by someone.
I had a crack in the return line at the top of the tank. I also had a crack where the steel filler tube but joined the tank. Both not great quality. I had multiple leaks along the seam joining the top and bottom half of the tank. I can’t blame the army for those problems. The tank was new when I rebuilt the 110.

Took the Bush Pig for a quick drive up and down the street last night. Now i have a red light up on the dash. Dont know what it is coz all the little pictures are worn off the fascia. Probably be expensive. At least the Pig went well...

Its got a volt gauge?
Ill have to look next time I start it...lol
ChatterBox
Yep got a volt gauge. Its still charging at 14 volts when the light comes on. It only comes on infrequently. I regoed it this afternoon and took it for a drive. Boy was i getting some looks with the pig on the bonnet. Its gotta come off. Dont need attention from the boys in blue atm. The floor isnt secured and the brake pedal has a little too much travel for my liking. Brakes work great tho. Hand brake is another matter. Its got a RR hand brake assy so its not real flash. Needs adjusting yet. I noticed a stick floating in the fuel tank when i checked the level b4 i went for a drive. Im not worried about it. Shouldnt affect anything for a while. Drives good too. Hmmm, do i sell it or keep it.
Cheers Rod

Foot brake light? Vacuum or fluid level? I can't remember what it does.
