Rear water tank - external fill point
Hi All 👋

Does anyone know of anywhere that does an external water tank that fits behind the rear wheel arch, but with an external fill point?
I’ve seen the Front runner and safari equip ones, but both have an internal fill point which we don’t want (and also isn’t compatible with our conversion). We’re happy with the tap location though.

I’ve seen there is a larger sill tank with an external fill but we don’t need one that big (and we also want to fit another side locker in that area)

We’re happy to drill holes for fill points (we’ve made enough already with our other mods 😅)

Thinking we may have to go custom but happy to hear of anyone’s experience.
Thanks

Just route the internal front runner to the outside? Cheers

Hi James

Unfortunately we have something directly above it (and did not future proof for this!) but have looked at ways of making to work it somehow

I think we’re going to look at getting one fabricated and move the fill point to the outside edge.

Ive seen fillers fitted into the rear quarter light window using a mud stuff window blank which worked well ... it goes into back of the vehicle and down any route you like to the tank.

We have an external safari equip tank fitted on the left side of the 110 with a filler next to the rear passenger door which works very well - I know its not what you are looking for but its a option that is out there ...
