As far as I know, they never fitted the gearbox PTO generator to the trucks.. it definately was originally intended to be there .. but for some unknown reason, they decided not to go ahead with it ... documenatary evidence has revealed the generator model they were intending to fit . Instead, they used a stand alone Briggs and Stratton petrol gene.. Cliffs idea could be right ..that dip stick fitting has got to be connected with the gene somehow.

Have you found the correct distilled water container yet... ? We are looking for one - it is listed in the stowage diagram . This weekend, I'll be doing some measuring of the sigs van battery mount frame - during our club XMAS breakup at Narre Warren... there is a wreck out back with the internal wireless battery fittings still fitted . A fully kitted out van in Adelaide, has the working wireless sets ... the AT5/AR8 etc.
