Long Range Fuel Tanks GU/GQ?

G'day all, can anybody tell me if a long range fuel tank (main) from a GQ Wagon will fit a GU Wagon???? I am positive they will, but would like to know for sure. ARB list a different part number for the two tanks. I will ring ARB tomorrow, but thought I would ask the forum first. Thanks in advance. John

Hi John

Tank will fit but there are some differences with hoses and fittings.

GU may have subtank, but its noiwhere NEAR the main.

I'm positive it will fit. Most are marketed GQ/GU... cant see different brands being different, as the mounts are the same.

Call me later, I'll call my mate at ARB Brighton.

The tank ARB sell for a GQ will not fit a GU.
And I doubt the other brands will either.

The chassis are different because the GU has a sub tank which has all the assosiated brackets to mount it have been welded on.
I think the floor pan is also a different shape so the top of the tanks are also different.
