Puma 110 fuel tank guard
I would like to add a fuel tank guard for my 110 as I was a bit naughty for climbing.
After google, I found that the anti roll bar have to be removed when installing a fuel tank guard. Is there ways to have both the anti roll bar and fuel tank guard at the same time?

I did on mine (Td5, but similar to puma).

I just welded up a couple of box section spacers to lower the A/R bar down a bit so it cleared the guard.

You can use tow bar spacers to space off the towball from memory.

IIRC Safari Equip do some anti roll bar spacers for their larger fuel tanks. These are square tubes with a flange welded on at either end. Think it lowers anti roll bar mount by about 3” which is probably excessive for OP use.

It is quite easy to lower the ARB mounts with rudimentary spacers.
