Managed to complete the framework for the rear seat storage area. That will get a flat deck above the tank ontop of the uprights.
Is there a reason why you left the back seats in? They are bulky and really heavy, and it would have made sense to me as a casual spectator to remove them.

I removed a back seat recently to access the sub-tank pump and it weighs a ton. I'd leap at any excuse to remove them permanently

Howzit Spike
I actually needed the rear seats on that trip to take the family on the dunes.
We also like having the rear seats in for taking family or friends along for 4x4 trails
Subsequently ive changed the setup to something much simpler and much lighter.
Cheers

Hi I have done some mods recently.
1. Ironman snorkel
2. Dual battery system - lithium blue nova in national luna power pack dc25 with victron shunt and ACDC 15amp charger
3. DIYish drawer system made of PVC sheet, it is light in weight
4. Front runner water tank with pump.

That looks. awesome! My biggest regret is not having space for a water tank inside . I felt the water tank on the roof last year at the river trip

Thank you. Due to the tank and size of the fridge, I had to order a custom slider for fridge. Hope it fits properly. Standard fridge sliders in the market are either too big or slightly small for NL60 lt.

That looks great, would like to see more pictures of the drawer system It looks nice and low-profile.
