I'm currently running an external walbro 255 and a sump fuel cell mounted where my back seat would normally be. I would like to replace it with something more factory-ish, and put it closer to where it's supposed to be between the frame rails. I also dislike climbing through the back window at the gas station to fill it up. Here it is now (yes that vent is now vented):
I like the idea of just purchasing a new tank made specifically for my Jeep, that way I can use the stock filler neck and sending unit. My question is, can I plumb the walbro to the tank sending unit? Or will gravity be working too hard against me?
Like to see more of your jeep!
Anyways, the consensus is electric pumps are better "pushers" than "pullers". In a perfect set up they will be a little lower than than the tank, at least lower than the fuel level in the tank.
What about sumping the stock tank?

Lots of pictures in the thread in my sig
That's pretty much exactly what I was thinking, and in my case since I'm planning on being off camber quite a bit, put a sump in each corner with a collector that goes to the pump. Here's my fancy CAD I came up with, what do you think?
One ton, ls cj5!? That thing is sweet!
Here's a pic of mine, I let the cj go, I have a 4.8 for the tj, one day....
Anyway, I like your idea cause it would be uniqe so do that.
