I was able to get a permit in W.A to drive mine to the place of repair without a tray or tub. Maybe South Oz or NSW have the same rules.Business's drive the cab chassis to the body builders in town here so you must be able to get around it Cheers

Why is it illegal to drive cab chassis? Just chuck a plank of wood over the wheels and some basic mud flaps and lights and your good
