Title: Tank moving in an accident.
Post by: AuRavelling79 on October 29, 2011, 11:43:52 am

Further to my thread about modifications does anyone know first hand of anyone who has had a tank shift in an accident and which has caused significant rupturing to the bulkhead, front seats etc.

And no I haven't had an accident but having an employee on board I want to be more careful about what risks I am prepared to take.

Pope ( ;D) Thank you - I guess you mean 400L - how was it strapped in and did the insurers query the claim?
