More Tracker Questions
« on: February 17, 2007, 07:43:43 AM »
First of all, I want to address the whole "trackers are very top-heavy" thing. Im sure they are, but in my experiences they dont seem that bad. If I were to lift it 2 or 3 inches, would it get really bad? What have your experiences been?

Second, unfortunately Trackers were given the smallest gastanks ever! Is there any company out there that offers a larger gas tank for these things? Or am I just going to have to lug around a gas can all the time? Or are there any of those military/jeep style gas cans that mount to the back of the truck? Sure there's propane, but more gas would be cool too!

Thanks guys,

I love this place!

Look underneath a samurai some day. Our tank is just a wee bit smaller.

You Tracker is a lot more stable than most people would think. Stability is going to depend on how you lift it but at 2-3 inches you shouldn't notice any real problems.

What wheels are you running? If you go up in height but also fit rims with less backspacing to increase the track then the overall effect isn't that much.
I don't know of a larger tank.

It's too bad there's not one you could swap out of a blazer or something. I wouldnt mind being able to drive a bit further.

any thing is possible with a torch and a welder!!!! but if you are handy with both of these things you could make one and sell it all over this sight
