    It does sit close to the tail shaft. Mine was rubbing on my last trip because my fuel tank copped a hit and it bent out a bit.

    Do you reuse the pump from the Nissan tank on the LRA or is an external pump used.
    Looks like the brown David tank used the original Nissan pump setup.

    What height lift do you have have and are you happy with the setup.

    Mine is on a GQ so it did not have a tank their from the factory.
    I have a 2" lift and adding this fuel tank is one of the best mods I have done to the car.

    Well, I'm pretty heavily loaded so economy is terrible. Lots on the roof too. Getting about 16l/100 and around 19 in the desert. So about 1000km if I behave..
    Used 134l to go Birdsville to Mt Dare. 690km.

    When ever the time comes to do the big lap, then I'll be fitting a 150 ltr Brown Davis number.
    but very happy with my range ATM, Brown Davis used the OE sender from the old OE sub tank.
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
