Thank you all for your aswers,

I am curious to find out what is the use of this bracket, I am just making plans of the floor of my fat , and I am asking myself If ad this bracket or not?
As Neels said the oil can is possible (there is no other bracket for it?)
I think something that the co pilot needs, but what?

Best regards
Sylvain

Here is a couple of picture of the one gallon can in the bracket. I am pretty sure it is not meant to be placed in this.

Hello
I think as you Niel, that certainly not for the oil can, but that 's curious there is no place for it.

Harry wath is a POW can?

POW stands for petroleum, oil and water. It merely indicates the multi-use of that patttern of a can.

I would agree that the can would not be in that spot. Way too high. It is hard enough getting into a cab 12 gun tractor as it stands without a 12" high barrier standing there.
