I guess from the sounds of it, I don't?? I was thinking of placing it directly over the rear wheels, along with relocating the battery, for better wieght distibution. Then, you know, maybe, aluminum lug nuts to shave some wieght...

Honestly you really won't get much better weight distribution with fuel tanks than you already have.

Key is to keep  weight low (and also between the f/r wheels)...look at subaru and their flat boxer motors... putting a cell in the trunk puts the weight up higher. Getting it over the wheels will interfere with the softop

You might be able to 'balance' more by putting it behind the wheels but I dont think you'd see the benefits you are after.

All that aside, fuel cells/sytems are EXPENSIVE. I have $700 alone into my fuel system, and it just covers cell to pump... does not even replace the stock lines.

Also, I think the stock tank is a lot safer, but thats IMO

Still trying to figure out why no one has commented on my newest pictures, maybe cause I put 'em on the wrong forum spot, eh?? Or maybe everyone is so impressed they just are speachless??
