    Why not look at off the shelf sill tanks?

    Only problem i have with them is the price tag :wink:

    I will be cutting / modifying series tanks to gain more clearance / capacity for the Hybrid.

    If you are looking for a D90 pre TD5 tank for under the drivers seat then LR part number ESR2242 is prob what your looking for.

    This is 12 gallon (60 litres?) tank and you can get them from Karcraft for about $450.

    You will then need all the plumbing / transfer pumps / fuel level senders etc etc

    Larns,

    You have to go into the members galleries (top one with S2 mil landy)

    Once in there is a dialogue box in the top rh corner with <admin options>

    Open it and click on <new nested album> your album will be created and you can then add pics via the dialogue box <add photos> (use the FORM method of adding photos)
