500l tank on back axle
« on: April 01, 2007, 06:49:57 pm »
Need some advise here please.

I have a Fiat Scudo which has six seats and a 250l tank sitting in the back. Have bought another 250l tank and have tried to take the middle seats out.

Cannot take them out as do not have the correct tools, so want to know will it be safe to put the other 250l tank in the back as well.

Cheers

Doug

500L = 500Kg = 1/2 ton.  I don't know much about cars but that sounds like a lot of weight to put on 1 axle especially when you add maybe another 50-100 kgs for the tanks.

If it's designed to take 6 passengers then it's designed to take about 500 kgs in people, but that would be spread between both axles.
