Anyone fitted a 168L Brown & Davis tank to a QM with a tub?

[Rossh36]

Picked up my QM today having had a 168L Brown and Davis tank fitted to my QM, with tub. Found out the hard way the tailgate won't open fully as it catches on the tank.

I'm wondering if it's the fitters or the tank design that causes this issue; has anyone else had this problem?

I'll be calling Brown & Davis in the morning...might go for a drive to se them too.

Cheers,
Ross

That's a known issue with the 168L tank and the QM, especially with the rear tub. The tank design sits quite high, which causes it to foul the tailgate.

It's not the fitters' fault; it's the design of that specific tank for that vehicle combination. Brown & Davis should be aware of it. Definitely give them a call in the morning.
