Welcome to the forum Kestrel!
Looks like you are a thinker, and a good one I reckon. I wouldn't mind betting a few other 150 owners might just copy your water storage solution, looks pretty sweet!
Not sure about putting N..... Ni...... Niss............ another makers parts on a Toyota though
I must say its a welcome change to see someone join the forum to offer something with their first few posts rather than want to take something.
Look forward to seeing what else you come up with.

Awesome mod ! I might just copy it myself.... though watch that "T" piece, it will smash with one stone hit and spill your water supply on the track.[size=1]2011 GXL D4D Auto | ARB Deluxe winch bar | Bilstein/Ridepro platinum lift | MT ATZ P3's | Dick Cepek Torque rims | Airtec snorkel | Lightforce Genesis 55w HID | GME UHF | 55w HID high beam | Rhino Rack bars & Cage | ISI extreme rack | Dual Optima Batteries | Milford MXV-70 cargo barrier | ARB onboard air | Prodigy P3 | Drawers & Black widow fridge slide | Waeco CF-50 | Kaymar rear bracket and LED light | EscapeGear seat covers | Sandgrabbas and more...[/size]

every thing sits higher than rear fuel tank. t piece is a gates automotive quality lot stronger than garden fitting. when pressure filling with garden hose one tank fills quicker than other so i normally put finger over breather as first tank over flows. could run that breather into other tank .good luck

Good stuff, my Jayco dumped 90L of drinking water on a short section of gravel, its got a stone guard over the water tank and a little plastic "T" piece hanging out in line with the back wheel.... its a bit of a shock when you go to fill up a drink bottle and get a puff of air Stones hitting it at 110kph can do some damage.[size=1]2011 GXL D4D Auto | ARB Deluxe winch bar | Bilstein/Ridepro platinum lift | MT ATZ P3's | Dick Cepek Torque rims | Airtec snorkel | Lightforce Genesis 55w HID | GME UHF | 55w HID high beam | Rhino Rack bars & Cage | ISI extreme rack | Dual Optima Batteries | Milford MXV-70 cargo barrier | ARB onboard air | Prodigy P3 | Drawers & Black widow fridge slide | Waeco CF-50 | Kaymar rear bracket and LED light | EscapeGear seat covers | Sandgrabbas and more...[/size]
