I asked sometime ago about a jerry can holder for my Lwb Haf. I also asked on one of the facebook forums, and Constantin
kindly posted these photos.
I have drawn a free hand plan, taking in measurements from the spare wheel carrier and other measurements from the photos.
The holes in the chassis are already there, so I dont know if all the Lwbs chassis are the same.
Give me your honest opinion as to what you think, and if you can suggest something you would alter.

Is different to my late model swb - mine lies on its side under the rear foot well.

I thought all LWB Haflingers had deep foor wells to accomadate the optional extra of 6 seats - i.e. two more feet in teh footwell from the people sitting with their backs to the direction of travel.
That would mean that the gap between the MkII petrol tank on the left hand side looking forward from behind the vehicle, and the foot well would as per the picture above.
I haven't gone out to look at my '73 LWB (UK) but I have that gap.

I should say that as long as it fits the gap, is stong enough to hold a full Jerry can securely it would be an acceptable addition to the Platform.
