What is it?

Post by Mancar1 »

Anyone know what the brackets under my bed are? They are attached to the underside of the bed on the passenger side a little aft of the cab. Thanks for any input, I am curious.

Propane tank could be, the previous owner did a lot of camping with a big cabover. It looks factory it is a real nice install.

Yeah the propane tank makes sense. Hey if you run a huge bottle of nitrous you got a place to put it. :lol:

Did someone say lpg?
The majority of F-trucks down here run on LPG(Propane) (what we call "gas")
Lpg is around $.50c a litre and petrol/diesel around $1.20! So its quite good value when our trucks do 15mpg if we are lucky haha

Since it's an Aussie truck, I'd bet it's for holding an extra tank for storing the "precious juice" for your V8 Interceptor. Be careful. It might be booby trapped!

if it was local I'd say it was for hauling moonshine.
