Combined axe and shovel holder

It's stuffed. Not worth the time and effort to repair.

Been there, done that. There's nothing relating to roof rack fixtures.

I have to go into Dandenong on Thursday and will call into ARB.

Trev I have these on the side of my camper trailer and have for years. They hold a shovel and a full size axe and have never had any problems etc with them.

I looked at buying from ARB when they first came out and instead contacted the manufacturer in the states and ordered them directly from them.

I ended up with DOUBLE the amount for the same price including postage. I even ordered two of the next size up (haven't used as yet) that can hold a small gas bottle or a fire extinguisher.

Took less than a week to arrive! Really shocked me!!

Not knocking ARB but double the price is a hefty mark up and that was when the Aussie dollar was less than 80c. should be even better now!

All the best

I'd never heard of these things until this post. How do they handle corrugations?

Kim they are fantastic and can hold waaay more than you would expect. If you go to the website End Of Road You will see them using them for even high-lift jacks!!

Me...only the shovel and axe and they are both there even after some shocking roads up north (wa).

Matt.

Never had any problems with them and been on lots of bad roads. They have been across the Simpson, Googs track in both directions, Border track numerous times etc etc.

I wouldn't be without them. The only thing I would suggest is checking the cable ties every now and then (and use heavy ones in the 1st place). You can also put a screw through the base but I didn't want to drill into my roof bars.

As far as importing them, I guess if you want to go to the bother then go for it but at under $30 for a pair I would just take the convenient option. Perhaps I am too lazy!

Have a good one
Trev

Thanks Rusty

I think I met Ian at the last caravan show. He has a rear wheel carrier for sale, but I wanted a bit of time to look at other options.

I'll give him a ring tomorrow and also ask if he's prepared to have a look at designing a winch to lower and raise the second spare onto the roof rack.

a better photo of it.

What happened to the auto sizing of images on this place??

Hey Truckster, what sort of $ does your mate ask for for those, they look good.

1 piece is $130
2 piece is $150 - this allows you to remove shovel and axe holder section while leaving the center part bolted behind the spare.
You can remove the spare while this centerpart is left on. VERY handy....
His mob is on the image I think...

Truckster

Thanks for that. the unit is very similar to mine. I can't pick up the company name on the photo. Can you pass it on, or MM.
