Water Tank Feedback

hi kerrod,

yes i have after i crossed the simpson twice and got really tired of not being able to splash some water quickly into my face or make a cuppa in a hurry.

I have 3 90mm PVC stormwater pipes accross my roof rack with 19 L and the hose runs along the snorkel down and i have a simple garden tap on the end.

Should have done it years ago.

I installed a mesh basket in place of the passenger bench seat. This contained plastic 3X20litre and fridge. Basket locked down on seat mounting points. installed removable platform to level the footwell between the basket and the passenger front bucket seat. on this platform sat another 20lt water with tap. Open rear pax door to get to fridge and water.Water slid out far enough to run water into billy etc positioned on side step. Worked well. Under platform was manual and other low use items. Removal of seat gives major weight and space saving.

Cheers

Chris

Geez - just imagine the weight saving in removing that rear seat :)

All the best
Chris

What about putting a water tank from a caravan on the roof rack, This is what I am going to do.

You can get one from a caravan shop for about $150 for 60 + lt, the sizes vary, this would also give you hot water for a shower etc( on a sunny day).

Cheers Steve.
