[QUOTE="Black Flash, post: 7472, member: 433"] I have bought two of these tanks, but they are certainly not ready to fit. First of all they forgot to fit the 2 ears where the strenghtening bolt and distance piece are fitted at the rear underside of the tank. not a big deal, but it has to be done.Then both of my tanks were very narrow at the end and I had to spread the U shaped tunnel out by 1/4 " using a hydraulic tool from a body repair shop. it is a pity cause they look to me like a piece of art, why don't they use a sturdy jig when welding the parts together.:confused: that done they look very good value to me and hopefully will be painted soon.
