Mitsubishi Challenger Long Range Fuel Tank ?

Ken,

I fitted one to my Triton it is the 135l one from ARB it cost about $1000.00 and I fitted it myself.
I think it would have been easier on a lift rather than jack stands but I got it in eventually, they slot straight in and use the original pick up and float.
Now have a range of around 900 - 1000km.

Cheers Kev

Thanks Kev
Will have a look at that one.

It should fit ok as I understand the Challenger and Triton are pretty much the same.

I have a TR42 out of my '04 Triton sitting here if it fits and you're interested, Ken. It might work out expensive once you add freight from Melbourne to Brisbane, though.

Out of Town 4wd (www.oot4wd.com.au) have a LongRanger for the Challenger as I recall.

It would be cheaper to carry an extra 3 or 4 jerries than spend $1200 and then 5 years down the track you end up updating the car, just my thoughts.

Thanks Wombat, just looking at my options, thanks anyway, but if I decide to go that way, may contact you, and if you still have it who knows.
You are probably right Skippy, reluctant to carry jerry cans but probably the best way to go. We travel mainly on the black stuff, and on our recent 15000km trip there was only one time we decided not to go somewhere because fuel could have been a problem, (Cape Crawford), and a couple of jerry cans would have been enough.

Gday Ken,

I have an 04 Challenger. I got a long range tank of 117 litres from Opposite Lock at Newstead about 15 months ago. TJM at Brendale fitted it with some other stuff. If I recall it was about $1400 fitted. Works fine, BUT, don't let them do anything to the fuel gauge sender. They stuffed mine up, then lied about it. Might be best to let OP install it. I think they get them made specially.

Regards

Chris

Have 04 model and fitted 128 lt tank from 4wd Systems Adelaide. Its up and out of the way and certainly gives all those extra klm's.

Thanks guys. A few options to consider, but as someone mentioned earlier, a lot of money to spend on a 4year old car, when I can carry jerry cans for the few times I may need extra fuel. When the time comes to buy a new tug, that would probably be the time to fit a larger tank. Love my Challenger, pity they don't make them anymore. Perhaps a TD Triton Dualcab will be the way to go.
