WOW... 2.1mtrs in length..... The Tub is only about 1.4mtrs in length, so that would give u an overhang of about 700mm..... are u going to fit a Roofbar over the Cab to support the front of it?

No can do as the cab and tub flex differently. It will overhang the bak about 15cm also. Hangs over just half of the rear door it will be bolted in your points over the tub. Maybe put a gusset in the front
You can see 2 black ratchet straps coming down the front of the tank. The tank is sitting on a metal bracket (comes with the tank) that bolts onto the floor. the bracket is about 100cm long and goes up about 80-100cms. You cant see it cause the riser is at the back of the tank. The straps loop underneath the bracket and come up over the tank. Its really solid. Had it full and done some rough stuff in Vic high country- no dramas.

FB ive had a look and i reckon you could fit a slimline tank under the tub if you do a body lift!

You reckon? I'll measure my space after I do the lift and see how I go,
35litera under the body would be good and then still have a couple Jerry cans.
Although filling it may be hard.

Does that pump have a pickup hose inside or something?

At this stage, we are still carrying water in the squat 20L(one 25L) containers. gives me the widest packing options. Most times we go away, we take the CT and it has;
a. 65L tank under rear,
b. 2 containers back left corner = 45l,
c. 2 contaners front right corner = 40l and
d. 2 containers on RHS of the constructed spare wheel carrier = 40l.
So I can carry 190 lites on the CT.
Previously(tub only) we put 5-6x20l(squat) up the centre of the tub. Now, with a pair of drawers levelling the tub floor and 2x900mm longx900mm high x 700mm deep aluminium lope front boxers I put 5x20l tall fuel up the centre.

$430 - 2 years ago. No reverse suck so you can pump up into the tank, however, its no drama. If you look at the photo, you'll see the black filler cap at the top right. Use a hose or long funnel and a bucket and alls good.
The internal pump hose is really effective and goes to the bottom of the tank.
