Hello All,
Does anyone know where i can get a plastic
water tank made. Reason i am having one made up is because i cannot find anyone who makes a tank to suit the size i require. I have a GU ute and have a neat spot under the tray for it. It needs to be approx 250x250x750mm long.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Brett

Why plastic, can you use stainless steel?

Stainless steel is an option (and would be better because it does not affect the taste of
water) but is alot more expensive.

Brett which State are you in? There is a company here in
Perth, based in Midvale that makes them. Saw the ad in the latest Western 4WD magazine.

Try finding a company that makes the plastic (rotomould)
water tanks in your area or go to a Bunnings (or similar) store and find out who their supplier is of
water tanks and contact them. I had a cousin that worked for a company here in WA years ago and they use to make many different types and sizes of
water tanks as a sideline to their standard tanks.
