New guy here so be nice!
(And ****, he DOES look like Clark Griswald!!)

I read where someone put a fuel tank in the back of their FSJ (where the spare tire is normally) and this sounds very intriguing.
I own a 74 Cherokee and wonder if any of you know of a tank or a cell (links on that would be great!) that might fit back there. I have full access to a machine shop so mfg'ing brackets, etc. won't be a problem.

And lastly, if anyone has any experience with Rusty's 6" lift kit, I'd love hearing about it.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

Welcome fastfxr,
That 33 gallon Bronco tank RiverBeast has in he back of his looks like a sweet setup. Here's link to a tank company.

fastfxr.. welcome to IFSJA.. I had a 20 gal tank in place of the spare. I removed it in order to reduce weight (about 180 lbs).. The 5 gal can on the tailgate is plumbed and I have a safe fuel range of 280 miles. I sure did enjoy looking down to the “Springs” from Buckhorn Pass.. :eek: :eek: ..CUL.. ds..
