The Wolfs use that area as Jerry can storage - not sure if the aperture is large enough on the Perenties though. It is certainly a secure spot to store liquids if it would work.

						Has anyone put their FFR battery compartments to custom use after ripping out the batteries?
If so, what have you done or what ideas have you had to turn it into a more practical space?

RFSVs and related have a dust and water-sealedporndocuments box in the driver's side.
I would one day like to do similar but to keep my fuel and stove.
They store mud really well. No mods required.
If you ever need to replace the seals, "number 47" at Clark Rubber is perfect. Just under 2m (180cm -ish) per battery door.
Around $12 /m.
Doesn't stop the mud. Just the rattling.

						The battery and radio stuff is out because it's mostly a tow vehicle to pull my boat to the beach. I like the idea of storage but at the same time I can't see myself doing a massive 4x4 trip anytime soon coz I always seem to be spending money on keeping my boat in the water.
For example, on Friday I had a outboard service. On the way home I blew a bearing on the highway. Life's a beach!!!
I figure a lighter vehicle should take longer to wreck the brakes.

I plan to install a fixed freezer. It will open using the flap. Batteries to be mounted in allie boxes where the jerry can holders are.

						SubscriberDave's idea of an extra fuel tank sounds like the way to go.
Thanks.
