    Converting GU ute side boxes to water tanks

    Thought I would throw this up for any GU ute owners. My brother ruined his sideboxes the other week trying to go over a fallen tree and needed new boxes.

    The local hardware store in Yarra Glen has these water tanks called HandyTank by Polymaster and for $40 each they are a great buy and perfect fit to the existing side boxes.

    You could use them to hold water, spray chemicals, whiskey...lol...Whatever!

    Nice one AB.... Just one thing though, don’t go over any big logs with these full of Whiskey. That would almost be sacrilegious!!!

    WARNING!: Do not ever use a towball as a recovery point. They are not rated and can become a deadly projectile during a recovery if they snap off, and they have done so with tragic results in the past.
