Getting the most from your road trips invariably means traveling long distances into remote places and at some stage you may require extra fuel.
There's always the old standby - carrying along gas in a portable container. We offer both single can and double Jerry can holders as well as a verticle can holder.
For safety, security and to maintain an off-road vehicles centre of gravity another solution is to fit a Front Runner long range auxiliary fuel tank.
Front Runner's long range fuel tanks have been designed in conjunction with South Africa's leading motor manufacturers ensuring you uncompromising quality and unbeatable strength. Utilizing CAD, the complex shapes of Front Runner's fuel tanks are individually designed to achieve maximum fuel capacity whilst maintaining maximum ground clearance.
Manufactured from 3CR12 stainless steel, the tanks are:
• individually inspected
• pulse pressure tested
• then sprayed in a resilient black anti-stone chip and
• then securely mounted to the chassis using powder coated steel 'cradle brackets'.
The strategically mounted 'cradle brackets' are specially designed to give rigid support to the tank preventing the possibility of stress factors, seam cracks and fuel leaks.
Front Runner's split filler neck allows you to fill both your main tank and the auxiliary tank simultaneously.
All you need to add is the wiring to activate the pump. The factory filler neck and tubing to the main tank are replaced. As an auxiliary tank a switched pump draws fuel from the bottom of the tank and pours it into the filler neck of the main tank.
They mount to existing frame locations, so major modification in not necessary.
Front Runner Outfitters offers several options for Toyota and Land Rover and is currently testing a tank for the 4 door Jeep Wrangler JK.
