that's it-I've decide to modify me draws in me troopy coz they only go one third of the distance in--hopefully after the weekend they will have an extra 50% to add more gear into.

So what's the plan Ray ?
How did you go on the carpet front ?

Darren

haven't got to the carpet yet but will replace it at some stage--too hard on the knees..

the draws will be 50% larger

from the edge of the carpet to the back void will be taken up by the new length draws.

about $200 for gear which will allow easier access to a heap more stuff.

More room for caviar and cooking gear for Mark ?

that's it mate---but mind u he has hinted at going fishing at balla balla again so looks like I will have to get the dingy out again.

organise a date and make a day of it--sat-sun.

will see what the tides r doing.

new draws in place--and a heap more gear stored out of harms way.

this is what I had and note the crap ontop

the comparison by utilising wasted storage area which was a pain to get to in the middle of the back of the troopy..

everything in place even lashed out and wacked a couple of handles in place--

the sliding draw on the RHS is still the original size and I think I might leave it like that for the time being.
The large grey plastic tank on the RHS is my water storage tank--65L--and hopefully this week my 12v pressure pump will roll up and will plum that in to give us a bit of water pressure rather than having it dribble out.

The next project is to remove the rear door speaker and mount the speakers inside the troopy out of harms way and replace that existing panel with a piece of Ali checker plate 1.6mm and then attach a fold down door to the side of that panel..so we can have a gas cooker sit there with a cup of coffee.

pics next week end.

Looking good Ray.
