The final thing we wanted to do to Red before we drop in a new 22RE was to install a Long Range America 125L fuel tank. We really want to avoid carrying jerry cans on the roof, and I (Richard) hate the weight/complexity/cost of rear bumper swing outs, so we decided to carry our extra fuel under the truck.
Although we’ve only run into a couple situations over the years (Laguna’s Route in Bolivia, and somewhere in Patagonia are the two that come to mind) where we’ve needed a bunch of additional fuel, we’re definitely looking forward to the 700km+ fuel range.
The fuel tank install required a change to the exhaust, so we installed a Magnaflow universal hot rod kit.
