G'day. Thanks to the guy i meet while buying beer, I have been put onto this forum :D I have an 85 LWB NT and bought a rear disk brake conversion and long range tank last year to install but because I have an Outback suspension setup in the rear the fuel tank doesn't fit unless i chop 40mm off it which i don't want to do. And I've changed my mind with the rear brake conversion, not much like hard work!
The brake conversion is only the bits, no rotors or calipers. I will try to get a photo up :p
The long range tank is about 70 liters and bolts onto the chassy cross member where the shock absorbers are welded. It makes it easier if you tack weld a bit of fencing wire or coat hanger to the top of the bolt when trying to feed the bugger thru the hole :D
$550 for both or $300 each.
Pickup from Avonsleigh in Melbourne or i can freight via Air-Road (about $90 to Queensland) The brake conversion will fit into a 5kg post satchel.
Any questions give me a ring on 0424-665-882

Its a steel tank, weighs about 20 kilos. I'll get some pics tomorrow. It is a real snug fit between the chassy rails, and i have coils with leafs on the back of my lwb and the protrude about 15mm either side of the rails and the dang tank won't fit without some mods. So i think its going to be easier to fabricate a new tank for myself then cut up a perfectly good on that someone else can use :D
