Carry Case for Tirfor & cable

most make there own storage compartments , others use boxes Venus Bay

In behind the Bull Bar, cut the middle out and box it in, its a great place to put dirty chains etc.

I keep all my recovery equipment in a large storage box I bought from TJM. As I do tours and often need the full 8 seat capacity I can lift this entire box out when necessary. I then only carry a small bag with shackles snatch strap etc. Hand winches are heavy and bulky to carry I keep mine in a potato sack and then store it in the large box mentioned, same with my cable. I use my hand winch on average once a week during training demos and have found the best way to spool my cable is to take an initial coil of cable then tape the flange end to the initial coil, I then just rotate the coil back towards me until the cable is all coiled. Always wear gloves when handling wire cable. Cheers RobCairns Offroad Training & Tours

I got a big canvas bag made for the cable and keep it in there. I keep the snatch straps, tree trunk protectors and winch extention strap in another bag and chain/snatch block in a third. As I don't have a storage system they are a handy size to pack where they fit.
Avoid getting a large bag to carry everything though. Once it is full you cant lift the bloody thing, let alone struggle up a greasy hill carrying it.

Roll your cable in an old wheel barrow tyre easy to store , on sharp bits to scretch the car and easy to carry see www.michellessacs.com.au for good quallity storage bags I have a lot of there products and am rearly happy with themBorn to drive a 4x4 , not a keyboard

If you want something cheap and solid, goto army disposal store and by an old ammo box, all my recover gear lives in one!

Brilliant...

We keep our recovery gear in one of those purpose built carry bags that the likes of ARB, TJM sell. As for our hand winch and cable we have these secured against the cargo barrier using quick release straps. Stops them moving around and keeps them out of the way and as we rarely have to use them, the fact they are a little hard to get to doesn't really matter. Ideally, we'd like to keep all our recovery gear, compressor, tyre repair kit and winch in a roller drawer system but have so far resisted fitting drawers because we need to access the child safety points on the floor of the wagon. However, we are now giving serious thought to making a custom set of drawers having come up with a rough design for them that will still give us access to these access points but will allow the drawers to be easily lengthened and modified once this is no longer necessary.
