Yeah.... I was afraid of that. I suppose if I REEEEAAAALLLY wanted to, I could retrofit it to work. More work than I care to fool with right now though.

Nice! I think for now, I'm going to just pound out the dents best as I can and then use the Go-Jeep method of increasing the capacity of the stock tank:

i would imagine the fuel level sender signal wouldnt be compatible, and youd have to add a return line

Oh, the ZJ is a returnless system, eh? Nah, that's more trouble than it's worth. I'll just modify the capacity on an XJ tank instead. I'll get a new XJ tank if I have to and modify that... well... after the skid plate is purchased lol.

FYI, you don't have to leave the link in the embedder once you've posted it. In case you didn't know.

Just left them there for reference. The first cell formula is different than the 2nd so I'd have to leave at least 2 anyways...they're posted publically on the interwebs so not like it's unsecure...lol

Yeah, true. Just meant as a "de-clutterer" (God that's horrible grammar).

Wait I think I misunderstood...did you mean the "Click here for full res" with the hyper link? That has to stay because if you click the photo you get the lower resolution of 640xZZZ(locked aspect ratio). Tons of detail gets lost.

Nope. Click the link next to the picture I posted further up in the thread. I've already wiped that from the copy of the embedder I made. CF is LITERALLY the only place that link exists outside of Google Photos.
