Does anyone know of an off-the-shelf water tank similar to the Front Runner unit below that would fit the rear wheel arch of a Defender 90? The below only fits a 110 and I'd love to find something similar for the 90. I've been looking for ages but haven't had much luck. I'll go custom if I can't find anything that already exists.

What rear wheel arch of the 90? :p
You might be able to squeeze something up the front somewhere, but there isn't much real estate in the rear.

You could use one of the under sill fuel tanks for water if needed.

Depending in how much protection you'll need under your 90, you might find an answer here. rv water tanks,Custom Made Holding Tanks for storage Marine, Boat, Holding, Yacht, Campervan, ,Caravan, RV, Motorhome - Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane, Queensland.

I had one made to my specs to fit behind the seats in my 90 and it's proved to be excellent. Cost effective too.

Fair point... there is almost nothing there, but I'm being optimistic! Thanks for the other tips. I'm fitting sill fuel tanks soon (I need the range) so once that's done I'll see what room I have to play with.

There's a company called ors(off road storage solutions) and they do a 70lt stainless steal tank that lays on the floor behind the front seats. Can't remember how much they were but only good if you remove the rear seats like I have I guess. Hope that helps
