Can anyone recommend a shop to supply and install an ARB 140L frontier long range tank to my Ranger PX1?
Prefer NOR or Midland.
Yes I can Google but would prefer a recommendation.

ARB Canninvale did my supply and install of the 127 litre one in the dmax
Price was the same as other brands through other suppliers
If you have 2 mates and handy on the tools it is not too hard just fiddly running the lines
-
Ended up doing it myself with help from a mate with a hoist. Took 4 hrs including syphoning about 50L of diesel, a couple of drinks, checking/cleaning while I was there in there and refilling from the jerries. So far so good with no leaks and the gauge seems pretty accurate.
Old 80L vs new 140L

just double check your lines and make sure they went around the side and not over the top
I had this weird squeak and finally figured out it was the return line had gone over the top and got pinched between the top of the fuel tank and the floor pan
-
Yeah there is bugger all room up there. I cable tied the lines to the brake lines with the supplied cable ties, hopefully they weren't squished! I have read of issues with funny idling and so forth when the return line is kinked etc.

The othwer thing to check when you have done a few miles is weather the handbrake cable is rubbing on the tank.
Due to how close it is i found the hand brake cable would contact the tank when going over obstacles that cause the suspension to have alot of flex. I have to make some adjustments to the handbrake cable mounts to ensure clearance
