Water tanks and their position/mounting depends on the camper type/conversion.
ie some just have a 20 ltr plastic drum under the sink, mine - Sopru- has a galv. tank suspended beneath the floor. Worth getting to an event and seeing the different types first hand….Old Bar is coming up soon…lots of campers in attendance at Lani’s ![]()

Thanks for the reply I had a feeling that might be the case .I was hoping there was a simple answer but as with thing that are worth doing it is never simple (18-09-2023, 07:33 AM)Eltrevo Wrote: Hi all I have just put a 76 back on the road after 14 years of sitting in someone’s driveway rusting away .

I've got a Sopru conversion with twin non original 316 s/s 45 litre tanks under it. I could do dimensions for you that fit. Alternatively if you came to Old Bar I've got some spare (ex Tintop) s/s tanks that I'd love to find a home for ![]() Guaranteed to fit a Kombi. Cheers

Can’t say I will make old bar unfortunately as I’m a shift worker and I’m working on those date plus At this stage I’m up to leaving the suburb but not the state “ still in the testing stage “ but if you could send size details of tank would be appreciated . This is my first step into the world of kombi campers so I’m not sure of the placement .

Show me a photo 'up under' that RHS to see what the floor is doing? I'll send size of tank & frame tomorrow upon receipt. Cheers
