        According to the previous owner, he had both fabricated. One in the rear center (15 gallon) and one on the side middle under the passenger side (8-10 gallon I believe). Both fuel lines run into a seperator which can be controlled via a lever under the passenger dash. I took a few pictures of what I'm talking about. I'll try to get a few pics of the tanks themselves.

          The bumper was custom. I took some pics and the tag of the company that made it:

            Thanks, I'd like to see that rear tank setup. Does your fuel return line go back to just 1 tank?

              rear tanks

              Rear tanks are great, dont hang down and hold lots of fuel.

                No there are two lines, one going to each tank. There is a sensor at the valve so when you toggle between the two, you're cabin gas gauge will work with both tanks...depending on which one you have it on. I'll take some more pictures tomorrow.

                  thats the standard rover changeover tap. You can tell because it appears to be weeping a little.

                      Not quite sure. Will look into that further.

                      I've only had the rover for a couple of weeks so I'm still picking and prodding over everything to see what needs to be done to it or what is damaged/fatigued.....

                      Thanks for looking out!
