Hello,
My 87 Ranger, is being brought back to life after 13 years, most of which my former spouse held it hostage from me.
For the most part, things have been going well. By suspicion, I saved the fuel system for last. When I parked it, I had just filled it up; this however did not keep the "former" from raiding it's fuel tank, leaving it to corrode, with no chance of use.
Upon learning this, I remember how I once decided if ever that tank went, I would replace it with a BII 23gl tank. While I am aware that I am not the pioneer in this adventure, I did do it in the spirit of improvement.
After some thinking, planning and consulting I decided to mount the BII tank just where it would be if in a BII, right behind the axle, with the driver's side shock right behind the forward tank support bracket.
