Jeep JK 2 dr Water storage solution
More prep for the Sydney Jeep Club trip to the Cape.
My Jeep JK will have 2 occupants - Jax (My beautiful wife) and myself!
I need to carry at least 20L of reserve water for cooking and drinking etc aside from my main 20L of drinking water in the back on top of my drawers and the 2X 1.5L bottles in the front of the cab to drink on route.
I am looking for advice / comment re my plans to put 25L on the roof bars
My Plan so far is to put 3meters of 100mm pipe (+ threaded end cap) up on my roof bars with a locking tap on the back end and a manually openable valve at the top on the front (to let the air out when I fill up) I expect to get approx 25 Litres of storage.
I realise I am adding another 25+Kg's to the top of my Jeep and that when the tank is half full I will have 12+kgs of "slide Hammer" LoL
Q. Has anyone got any recommendations / cautions / advice before I fab up some brackets & weld em on?
Thanx guys in advance for any info / advice you might give!
cheers Hunty
