Roof Rack / Diesel Tank
I've been to the fabricator today and he installed the roof rack and the 2nd fuel tank for our desert trip later this week. The top two pictures are at his shop (the smoke in the top right is just your average every day air pollution rolling by). The bottom two are of our driver Ali and I trying out the secondary fuel tank. It's a 200 liter monster but I wanted to try it with just 60 liters in case it leaked or something. But it did work and how it works is pretty simple, there's a filler cap on the top of the tank with an air valve in it, you fill the tank up and when you need to pump diesel into the main tank there's a pipe on the side and I just use my air pump to pump air into the tank and that pushes the diesel out and down the hose to the main tank. Pretty slick.
And a couple of shots of the street outside the fabricators shop. Never mind the goats, a lady came out of the building to the left and shooed them into the house after I took the picture.
