Does anyone have a recommendation for fuel (petrol mainly, diesel optional) containers with systems for dispensing fuel that are greater than 20L, around the 50-60L mark. We are looking for ones that can be thrown on the back of a ute ideally. I've seen good plastic (
grey) systems around our area, mainly for farming use i assume, just need to find out brands etc.

Sceptor Flo n' Go Duramax Fuel Caddy at 53L:
Would rather prefer something a little more solidly constructed ideally.....

What about Bladders that will fit the issued Space cases??
fabric Solutions located in Brisbane may be able to fabricate a fuel bladder that would fit in to the required space case etc.

Kev, we've got to get it through the system. ;) Bladders may be just outside our scope, though i'll look into them thanks. Cyclone generated issue that we need to address while the avenues are open Kev.

My thoughts on using modified space cases would be that they are stackable and are an ergonomic box with built in lifting (by hand) and tie downs. A filled box will require several able bodied persons to manouver but once in position should be ok.

Must remember that containers must be placed on ground when filling, so you want to ensure that there able to be lifted back up again. Something to think about weight wise.
Alot of servos will only allow a maximum of 20-25L containers also. They usually have stickers or signage around the bowsers stating this along with no smoking, no mobile phones etc.
