I just got done stretching the TJ and now im looking for a fuel cell to mount behind the rear seat i know the space is really limited but has anyone had any experience with this or knows where the best place to get one is ??????
 
Summit has some that look like they should fit very well behind the seat depending on how big you want it to be. They have quite a few that are only 12" wide and even some narrower than that.
 
ok good deal i didnt even think about them lol thanks alot ......Running a fuel cell in the cab if i were to run it with the top on do you think the gas fumes would be to much to handle
 
hmmm i was just concerned about wheeling in the winter it doesnt happen alot but sometimes its fun to play in the snow.........but at this point its really the only option
 
I'm going through this with our TJ right now. The RCI 2161 is by far the most popular in-cab cell (in my observation). That cell goes for about $230 through summit racing. You also have to buy the ring to adapt/mount the stock fuel pump. Rings are available either through Kore4x4 or genright (or probably a dozen others). There are a few good writeups on pirate of the install, I can link to them later tonight.

When done correctly, they end up looking pretty clean:

There are a few other options as well. Genright has a nice looking unit that doesn't require the ring ($600). You could also go custom...
