    GU utes are fully 'chassis' self sufficient:-)
    Only mods needed to date have been 'guards'!
    Tray's cannot slide on/off with fixed tray guards on them, hence the 'wanky' Dyna's :-) !
    Think of it like a 5th wheeler without + trailer air needed, (single line vacuum future stage to come) she should only need a 7Pin light connect & Ando power for each trays power needs :-) !
    Twin Optima 'yellows' below, chassis mounted !!

    Interchangable Ute Trays

    One step closer! Managed to sneak through the design dept my wacky sketches of the "Weekend corner cut 'SHS/RHS' tray back" theory.
    Many jack points, boxes & tyres still need adding.
    Dare to be CHS different I guess :-)

    I realise you're trying to save rego's , but there are stacks of Hi-lux
    dual cab tubs lying about. they make great spray units. The tub holds
    a caged 1000 ltr container and the drawbar would house the pump unit.
    Just saying
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    That would be blasphemy John driving around with TOYOTA across a rear tailgate! I converted some 11 years ago now and visit AB's church regularly.
    I do like your idea though, may have found a more suitable tub I could steal off @AB ;-)

    This is our current water carter. In the panicked aftermath of Black Saturday we added the second 1000L which foolishly bent the trailer. Now going to add this pump and only one tank to a steel skid for the back of the ute chassis. Much more nimble getting around the paddock tight areas in a rush for small grass fires only.
    Note: IMHO Buggered if we or anyone should stay if now known weather conditions like that day ever arise again!
