Post by DieselDonkie »

Hi been reading up on long range diesel tanks. I don't want to lower my spare wheel any other options would like to replace with 1 tank maybe something like 150lt. Any suggestions

Then would a chip and power flow exhaust have impact on my warranty. Want to to take it to Kosie Swanepoel

The exhaust and especially the chip will affect the warranty.

I also prefer the idea of a single tank and they are commercially available. Check if ARB make one for your model. Otherwise you can have the original one extended like I did with mine .... best is to have it done professionally.

Don't know if you'll get as much as 150lit overall, it would depend on how much usable space there is in your tank area. I only gained about 35 litres and air locks when filling isn't a problem. You can see what I did here (on pg2 of this topic) .....

Ask your dealer about a Unichip - some dealers is ok with it, some not.

Maybe phone up Kosie Swanepoel and ask which dealers in yoour area is ok with it and service your truck there?
