Which drawer system

Nice rig there Stephen. I just had a closer look (double click) and can see lot's of space for more stuff LOL :-))

I like that awning, I'll hafta look into that.

Ta for the pic.

Fred.

You are setup similar to what I,m look for Cargo barrier with shelf. I,m thinking about installing the stainless steel water tank as well between the drawers and back seats?

Have you seen this slide before http://www.platinumgear.com.au/

Seems to be a good idea but I,ve little about them?

Hi Fred
When we head bush, you would be surprised just how much gear we take. We have just purchased a kitchen sink - well the fold up ones from the EO shop, so next time we will have even more gear in the car, including the kitchen sink. LOL

As for the awning, it is great. We usually use it at night, but the day that we were at Neale Breakaway on the Connie Sue, it was quite warm without any shade, so we put out the awning for some shade and our lunch break. We have had all our gear for some time and are very happy with the way that it all works.

Cheers

Hi Rare
The water tank would be great, but not sure on the size. Whenever we head bush, we always carry a minimum of 100 litres of water. It sounds a lot, but when you are not able to top up along the way, you would not believe just how quick the water goes in a 3 week trip. We do not waist it, purely for drinking, cooking and washing dishes etc. We usually have 1 x 20 litre water container, 10 x 2 litre old coke bottles full of water 6 x 10 litre casks of spring water. In this way, when the coke bottles and spring water are used, it gives us extra free space inside the car. The coke bottles fit very neatly in both foot wells under the Forward Floor.

As for the drop down fridge slides, they are only new out and we have our set up long before they were out. The only trouble now with the Top Shelf Barrier, you can not just open up the fridge the way I used to before, as the is less than 10mm gap between the fridge cover and the bottom of the barrier frame ( this is for my 40 litre Engel.) As I am a lot taller than Fiona, I slide the fridge out and can see what is in there.

Cheers

ill second that
very good unit and only half the price
cheers

I should have mentioned, if you are in the market for the real upmarket stuff I'd suggest "Fourby Fitouts", Hallam, Vic.

They build great "modular" drawer systems. Only marginally dearer than the others mentioned but superb, if you're not on a budget.

Your Website's looking great Jimbo !

Thanks Wayne,

We've spent a dollar or two to get it right.

Regards,

Jim.

Hey Greg, do you mind giving us an idea of how much they are? There seems to be no info on the website - even on the order form where they ask for your credit card details but don't mention the price... is it a case of "if you have to ask then you can't afford it?!"

$550 was listed in the last thread about them on here.....though it might be good to read that thread: 55491 - Drop_Down_Fridge_Slide

Hope they have changed management practices.....

Andrew

Thanks Andrew. I thought the website looked like it hadn't been updated in a while, then I read that thread - they must be out ExplorOzing somewhere because it sure seems they're not putting much time into their business venture!

sorry for the lateness in this reply timbo.
i paid $645 delivered. bit expensive but worth every cent

to add to my last.
this is for the 80-100 ltr slide. the smaller fridges get a smaller price tag.
i spoke to them when i ordered it and they are having trouble updating thier website

Thanks Greg - yes, that is a lot, but then again, a standard fridge slide is usually already at least $350-400.
