I had a question for you regarding a 3/8 tube on the top of my transfer case which was pushing oil out, couldn't see it in the manual any idea?
I put a pressure valve on it so it doesn't let oil out now.

I don't have any experience working on the 4X4 models. Have you seen the facebook Morris Commercial C8 and GS quad page ?

Water bowser fitted to a CS8 Portee (I think) on the Giza Plateau.

I wondered where all the white 2 Gallon cans went!

Interesting field mod ! looks like a C8 4x4 with the field rigged tank, a case of improvisation

Are there two bowsers fitted to that vehicle? Almost looks like a second parallel and inboard to the one at the rear.

Thanks Terry you are spot on with that, will have a look around for an expansion tank. Pressure relief valve will keep the oil in for now. Having a new thermostat housing forged at the moment will keep you informed.
