    Thanks mate. That will do me. I will do my false floor and some recessed floor based tie down points, and some flat bar type tie downs (to feed the strap through) on the flat rail panel and it should all.come together well. Many thanks good people.

    Cheers

    I have a large rather robust plastic tub that holds 6x plastic jerry cans snugly that I carry in the canopy of my 79 series.
    This not only holds the jerrys securly in place it will also work as a "Bund" if one of the containers were to leak

    Thanks mate. I have a very similar job that tightly holds 3 x 22l jerry cans. I wouldn't mind using that (2 x diesel and 1 x water) but it takes a lot of room and I am looking at a solo spot to sleep.so need the cans along each side tight against the walls. Cheers

    Right this will work. I am going to use recessed spring loaded tie downs in a 17mm formply floor. I am going to ask router slots for T profile alloy and use T bolts and nuts for a variety of things including a removable fridge slide. I like being able to quickly turn it into an open loadbed. Cheers
