Hey guys,

What kinda fuel economy are people getting with 31-33" tires and 6:5:1 gears?
Even just list what fuel consumption you get and what mods?

And if anyone knows of any straight bolt on bigger tanks that would fit a lwb tray back sierra let me know

Thanks in advance
Regards

Sam

There is some good info posted in here with people various set ups... viewtopic.php?f=5&t=41756&hilit=fuel+economy

pretty sure you can use a Jackaroo tank of some sort, have a suss of tombutts thread, maybe monleys & a few other trayback sierra builds, i know fatzook used one in his UFP (unfinished project)

No 'bolt in" bigger tanks for traybacks AFAIK. Plenty of room to use something from another vehicle.

Jackaroo 80L

Baleno 51L but a bit of an awkward shape to work with.

---------

Sierra 40L

Jimny 40L

1.6 SWB 42L

1.6 LWB 55L

X-90 42L

2.0 SWB 70L

2.0 LWB 70L

GV 2.0 SWB 56L

GV 2.5 LWB 66L

XL-7 2.7 66L

(Info taken from here - http://nbs4x4club.com/forum/index.php?topic=1799.0)

EDIT: Fixed list as per correction below.

a correction to that list the 2.0 SWB SV420 vitara tank is 70, exactly the same as the SV620's.

Monley has a vitara tank.

Jackaroo tank wont bolt in (just like everything else) but it's not a lot of welding to fit. You do lose the spot for your spare tyre but you pick up 80l of fuel capacity and you can keep the original tank.

10-12l per 100 seems pretty normal for a modified Sierra.
