Rear storage draws

Had a friend who liked the idea of locks on his Black Widow drawers. But when you pull the fridge slide forward, you could access the contents of the drawer...............

I second the comments here.

I've made my own in the past from Timber etc, but decided to lash out this time and buy the BW ones. They were fitted poorly by the installer and rattled. Upon return from the 12,00km trip that I was on at the time, I rang BW direct and they were most obliging. They fully removed the drawers, replaced a dud bearing, re-installed them PROPERLY...apologised profusely and promised that they would followup with the installer with some retraining.

Gave me some complimentary items too.

Very good service from BW....great product. Would reccommend.

Cheers,

No personal experience but met a couple that were on a trip around Australia who had purchased a set of Tanami drawers and they were very impressed with their purchase.

Further to my earlier reply. This is what I'd be looking for:

1. Quality of roller system.
2. Thickness of the sheet metal. I came across a guy who had a unit that was paper thin. He said the rattling drove him up the wall.
3. Good quality locks.
4. If your running a 60L fridge you'll probably need at "set down" as shown on their web site.
5. Have a real good think about what you need or want. For example (in my case):

The back seat was taken out and a bed extension added.

Underneath the extension is a 60L water tank and compressor. The remaining room holds a 2KVA Honda generator and rifle.

If there are two people sleeping in the car, the fridge is pushed out and a section placed in the gap. This requires the back door to be open, but all I do is put up a simple tarp which only takes a couple of minutes.

I agree with most very thing jim has said. Timber is structurally sound if designed correctly. Check out

Always look for bolted not screwed

I Offroad Systems as well. Have found them to be of high quality.

Hairy,
I alos have an offroad systems (sydney) draw set up as well. I ended up there because Graeme is the only bloke I found who has a system that is flexible enuight for you to design the size and shape that you are after. To date I am very happy with the unit.

As mentioned above fridge height is an issuse, especially with a 60l waeco - they are very tall fridges. You don't want to have to climb up onto the back of the vehicle every time you want to get something out of the fridge. IMO the fridge should be mounted at floor level.

Steve are you saying that you have a set that you took out or your 80 series to sell?


Grrr!!!
