I thought they were water can holders, and the same for the ones mounted onto the side armour.. Intruduced during the Middle East campaign for the extra water requirement for both vehicle and crews.

Seventy-six images have been added to the T50198 MK-I* carrier posting from Ditsong museum, Johannesburg, South Africa. With two hundred and sixty-six detail oriented images posted by Mr. Steve Tegner, this provides a resource worthy of thanks from the MK-I carrier community.
(former link invalid) FMCo part numbers and details of the desert stowage water container racks. Both the single interior as well as double left and right rear exterior are shown. One image also shows the brace, C01UC 100901 used to support the alternate towing hook bracket. See FUC-03 page 305. Thank-you Steve. Last edited by Michael R.; 02-01-22 at 01:33. |

Thanks for contacting him and getting more pictures. Slowly the mysteries are being chipped away.

Likewise, thanks. It's clear that quite a number of carriers will need this inside water bracket. From the photo's it's construction is clear and straightforward. It's size can be estimated, but it would be nice to get an accurate length, width and height before making a reproduction. Any chance the museum might be willing to provide it?
