hi
are the fuel tank on a 413 the same as a 1997 samurai?? will a 413 tank fit straight in to a 1997 samauri??

They are very similar but not the same. The only real difference is that a coil tank has a plate on the top where a vitara intank fuel pump will bolt in but a 413 tank won't. It only has a pick up hose. The mounting is the same though.

Anyone making a cheap replacement tank that is bigger? I'm lookinga t making one but would be happy to part with cash for one already done if there is one around. I'm looking for 65L plus

Steve what's the new tank like for filling? I know Nigel and Wyane have trouble with their one's. They basically have to jack up one side of their truck if they want to top it right up

Are they full width? I've already moved my exhaust in anticipation of me doing something.

If they can come modded to take a vitara pump and 65L plus I'd be in... Who do I talk to?

Just getting it, and installing it are 2 different things. Shane Booth made it and he'll have all the specs. Its not quite full width but the exhaust might come into contact. Remember I'm going to be hauling just about everything out from underneath once I start this job and the cutting and welding will be full on. I've decided to put the 2 inch body lift back in as well and that might just help with filling the tank.
I'll take some photos of it tomorrow next to a standard one and post them up.
