This interests me greatly where did you get it done and how much have been thinking something similiar for my RFSV since I have the mark 1 spare wheels will be attached to ROPS inside.
Been planning on getting out to long range automotive in Lillydale when I get the chance but works been keeping me busy when they have been open lately.

Did you make this yourself mate or get someone to do it? I like it!

I wish I had the skill to make something like this. I had it made by a local bloke who normally makes fuel tanks for boats and the occasional fuel cell for track cars. There was nothing particularly special about him, just take the picture of mine to a few of your local tank makers and ask for a quote.

Second fuel filler that mirrors the standard and a fuel supply switching system operated from a dash switch.
If you want part numbers, let me know.

Hi Dave would you mind posting the part numbers for all to see?

Sorry for leading you hanging, folks.
Am away for the weekend, but will post up in a few days.
If you can't wait, hit up REMLR.com. They have all parts manuals available for download.

Thanks Dave no rush when you have a spare moment. Might be good to add it to the part numbers thread in the coil sprung section

So, there are 4 pages of parts images and numbers , forgive me for not transcribing them across.
Download the complete Perentie 4x4 RPS from REMLR here: remlr.com
the library/ Parts/ RPS/ 1/2 way down the page.

You want Parts group DBA/3 (p102)

Give a man a fish.......

Is the proximity of the exhaust a concern if the passenger seat box is used for a fuel tank?
