Going to be an interesting trip for sure. Sooooooo many unknowns with this rail, even after putting a wrench on every nut and bolt and rebuilding rear and front.  Been bouncing off the rev limiter and not clutch pushes with 12" tall lift offs just to check the cv bolts, clutch and trans. That only goes so far compared to the abuse of the dunes trying to keep up with everyone.

Got the base and tie downs welded and painted for the red rail. No pics of them done yet. Waiting on some fittings from earls that speedway doesn't stock.  Bought a 10 an bulk head fitting for the tank vent.

Much better! I feel safer just looking at the picture. Good on Speedway to acknowledge there is a defect on those tanks, but Speedway should send out something like a voluntary refund/replace to anyone that has purchased these tanks.. Fireball waiting to happen, not cool.

There has been far too many burned using those type of "fuel cells". They are not safe and should be removed from the market.

I can see why. They should not be labeled offroad in any shape form or fashion. I don't feel they are safe for any application having seen them split down the center of the weld

Off road is code for not safe where people are present.

Getting ready to add fuel and fire it off. I had 10 an feed and return at the tank on the bad one. 8 an feed and return on this 1 with 10 an vent. Same routing , to the top, down to the frame, across the frame past the tank then down below the tank.
