Need a stock carb fuel tank
« on: Apr 13, 2008, 08:21:18 PM »
So here's the sitch: I've got a 30 gallon gas tank in my 81 Toyota 4x4. It is too big. I know what you're thinking, "But Will, there's no such thing as a tank that's too big," and I would, of course, agree with you, except, when I am out wheeling, when my suspension articulates, the driveshaft rubs on it. My suspension is stock, and I think on a lifted truck it would probably be no big deal, so does anyone want to trade? Stock for 30 gallons.

Oh and I'm in New Mexico.

I have one from an 85, but not sure if it will fit in the 81. I'm in southern AZ.
I don't need a winch, I wheel a TOYOTA!!!!!!!

Sounds intriguing, I'd meet you somewhere, but with gas prices what they are, i'm a bit hesitant... :think:

I have a friend that goes to Albuquerque every other weekend from here in AZ. If you want the one I have (from 85) I can see if he'll drop it off to you.

Sounds great! That would be just what the doctor ordered. Do you want this big one from my truck?
