Added a rear ladder too, just to help getting in & out. Not need really as we only have a front rack but also doubles as a mount for the rear work light.

Thanks Steve, just wanted something tough & cheaper than a steel one. Would have had one of Errol’s but logistically it just didn’t work. All in with a brand new case it cost £225.00 including back plate & ss fixings. If a good second hand one would have come up it would be £90.00 cheaper.

They’re good aren’t they James, the locker is the other side so Gwyn kindly sold me a single ( great bloke) as for the cable tie it just stops it flapping at the bottom about the only thing that you can do.

So, trip down to the fabricators. 1st fitting of the main unit & apart for a corner to be cut ( to give a panel some more tolerance) it’s looking good.

I do rather like the water connector for the back window blank ... and its one of the many ‘I’d like to do that’ jobs !!
Thumbs Up
Thinking of having some gas and water connectors at that point for the outside use ...
The list grows longer every day!
