TOPIC: Is it possible to swap bigger fuel tank to 83-85?

Is it possible to swap bigger fuel tank to 83-85? 13 years, 4 months ago #10234

I tried a search I could not find a real answer. Has anyone done it? Any other later parts needed? Does it bolt straight up?
Thanks,
Chad

yes it is possible. However the gearbox mount may need to change along with the cross bar. I believe it is welded in place on early cars and bolted in place on the later tubs. I am not certain what it would take to convert it over.


I belive the change to cross bar and gearbox mounting were to account for the different tank.

Nick at Bennington has done this. It does require cutting as above.
