Thought for increased fuel capacity..

Not sure if this has been discussed or not, if so I apologize, I searched without success..

Many companies obviously make auxiliary fuel tanks for Land Cruiser, 4Runner, etc, but nothing for the Sequoia..

But I was thinking, has anyone ever experimented with removing the stock exhaust, and putting a second factory tank opposite the original, then creating a custom exhaust with a single or dual smaller mufflers in the rear (like where the factory resonator is)?

Seems doable, but I'm still looking at buying a Sequoia, so I don't really have the an example to get up close and personal with...

Maybe it would be easier to 'adapt' one of the 24 Gallon Auxiliary tanks from Long Ranger for a 4Runner or Land Cruiser to work in the back of the Sequoia, but Long Ranger will only give me 'PC' answers that they cannot be fitted.

I (crudely) stitched a couple of undercarriage photos together here to illustrate the point (Red Rectangle representing second tank). 56 gallons total seems like it would be a nice capacity, and the weight would be balanced side to side nicely. Would be really cool if you could figure out a way to have them both emptying simultaneously..

Added bonuses being tanks are much cheaper used, and probably even new than the Aftermarket options, can use factory hardware, pumps, skid plate, etc...

Thoughts?

 

Interesting! I like what your cooking.
