After some extensive research on the range of auxiliary fuel tanks available in Australia, I recently decided to fit a 160-litre aux' LRA tank to my 80 series, the unit has good ground clearance and is a very neat job overall, everything works as expected so I couldn't be happier. Thanks again to Roger, Tash and the gang at LRA for your professional service. And thanks very much Grizzly, for the reassuring review on the LRA tanks used in your Defender, happy travels everyone.

LongRanger Tanks are awesome. I had 180L auxiliary tank fitted in 2012 and still going strong.

I see it the same way: whatever opportunity you have to learn something new, it's a plus, no matter if it's in your turf or not.

I've got one in my 110 and it's awesome, Roger is a top bloke too

Thats the way young felah,l got similar setup in my 4bd1t County the problem l had is the drop arms get bent doing 4x4. You can put front sway bar on if you do your research in the forums you will find its a better option if you do alot of 4x4. While you are in my area try camping at the Kurth Kiln Gembrook and Running Creek just before Jamieson great spots.

Those tanks look good, I might need to look into it. I completely agree on not only relying on the fuel gauge, I also reset the trip meter at each fill up. I also have a book where I write the mileage and litres down. I then can keep track of the fuel efficiency over time to keep an eye on how the engine is doing.🤷🏼 been doing it for years now.

We managed to put a hole in our LRA tank on our Tacoma. 30 miles from nowhere on BLM lands in Wyoming and we're under the truck patching a hole. We found a welder to fix it later, and we love the extra range it gives the truck!

Another great episode 🤘

You just KNOW that the end result will be good when the boss has workshop floor grime on the knees of his jeans!

I love these videos where we actually get to see where the stuff is made and the stories behind the company, for example imagine if you asked him about the the company history and he starts telling you about a hostile takeover from a massive billion dollar company owned by some bank no ones ever heard of, I'd have turned off. Would love to see more of these, perhaps you should get a deal with the discovery channel and tour the world sourcing all the parts to build overlanders and off road accessories.

Hy GrizzlyNbearOverland, you’re the best Overlander. Saluti dall’Italia from me and my jimny, sorry for my english.

super, a bientôt

Very informative.

Very interesting video again. By trying to safe every kilogram on my Defender just for the reason that it is under powered anyway, i am still impressed how heavy yours is and still works reliable in general. I know that you have an power upgrade and i think i have to look for such as well. Cheers and have a great weekend.

I'm so glad that I stumbled across this vid. I'm seriously considering an Ineos Grenadier, which only has a 90ltr tank. I've emailed these guys about it.

Me thinks its Stephy that keeps the notes on fuel usage😂

Not far from my place and I was in Lilydale yesterday, taking an older sister shopping. The long range fuel tank on my Sprinter came from these blokes. If I had known you were going to be there I would have popped by to say hello.

I just added 40l to my Discovery yesterday for £40! I bought 2 Jerry cans which I can stow anywhere. Better still, I can upgrade by another 40l anytime for the same price!

Great vid.

...dude that tank has done a few kms around the world!

😎👍

210L thats biggest fuel tank I’ve heard about on a car(

Tassie, Tassie, Tassie, Tassie you missed Tassie, Tassie. I hope you don’t miss Tassie next time😜🤣🤣😜🤣

Sharp haircut and a tight black long sleeve top…. You’re so Melbourne 😜

Wow... 210L capacity... that's an eye watering 400€ to fill up over here... My truck has a 100L tank and I've only ever filled it completely once in 5 years..Nice mods though and essential if you travel the Aussie bush I guess... A mate of mine nearly ran out of petrol near Alice Springs once.. That would have been life threatening..

After some time now, I would be interested in your thoughts with the rear sway bar fitted and the differences you have/have not noticed. Is the trade off in reduced articulation worth it?

Linkage for the swaybar should be in the opposite direction so that the swaybar is parallell to the ground and the linkage more horizontal. I think this needs to be changed to work correctly.

Hi Lee and Steph, I love your channel and I’ve been following you both for a while now. I just thought I’d ask, are you selling the old tank by any chance? I’ve recently bought a Perentie 6x6 GMV (after growing up with two Ex-army Series 3’s and owning a Disco One for 16 years) which I’m planning on adding some extra fuel storage to. Regards, Shanon😊

@8:15. Link rod need to be vertically positioned to handle the resistance. Mounting horizontally will not solve the purpose.

Can a long range aux tank be fitted to the new 130? Thanks.

Just checked for my Prado - they won't fit on cars with active stabilisers (I have the KDSS). This new design is amazing, how does your car feel with the stabilizer bar back on?

5:34 How long is the driving lenght with yours defender 140L tank? I got T4 Syncro van and I got 1000km range with the 80 litres tank. Thanks, and I’m waiting to see where you end up by over seas.

So what sort of fuel economy do you roughly get ? So will a tank full get u 1000 KMS ?

Thanks for the effort Lee but you won't need a long range tank in New Zealand lol

We don't say litres.
