Daz, would you be better off selling your trolley complete, the pure freedom one always seem to sell for alot, buy a back pack for your houses that you can't get the hose to, then buy a new pump and controller, plump it in properly, then have a tap on the tank and hose lock connectors going to the pump so that you can easily remove it in the winter?

At first I thought yeah a ratchet strap sounds ok then I started trawling through past posts on the forum and I'm not convinced that 4 ratchet straps through the floor anchors are safe anymore. Like Daz i am at the stage where i want to go to a van mount It all sounded easy as but once I started reading previous posts on securing a tank I'm not to sure that Daz's installation is the way to go. I'm gonna read up a bit more on it and decide whether some more hardier anchor points through the chassis would be feasible.

i got two ratchet straps but only fitted one!(no room for the other!)its solid its really tightly strapped down.its a layflat tank and i have bars behind my drivers seat.the straps fit snuggly in between the baffles in the middle of tank.feels ok to me.
im not planning on having a crash any time soon and im certainly not gonna worry about it!i drive very carefully with a full tank of water in the back.my tank is a quarter full at the moment.ive took trolley out and hose reel as ill be doing a bit of driving about this weekend here and there.
im planning on getting a car as well next year so the van will just be used for work.
it was a cheap easy convert from trolley to van mount in about 60 mins!!!

lee the trolley still comes in handy for washing the van with two barrels on and if in the case of van off the road i could put trolley in a car in an emergency.trolley will be taken out in winter or ill have a van heater in the back.
i dont have any work where i cant get a hose to.dont need backpack or trolley.the van mount covers all my work.a couple of jobs where i thought it would be awkward with the van mount i dumped on monday.
