In no particular order. There is my suspension my fuel cell setup and my fog lights! Let me know.what you think!

Not only no particular order but no particular orientation.
But it certainly is colorful. I'm envious of your IRS.

Kimba the fuel cell is 16 gallons. It's pretty big. It mounts on a frame that also holds the fuel pump and fuel lines.

Fuel cells. I'm curious why you guys are doing that. Is there some deficiency with the original fuel tank? Or is this to hold additional fuel like for a Cannonball Run type race?

The original tank was rusted out and I didn't want to spend the money finding a new tank and shipping it.

So I went with a fuel cell that cost ms 160$
