Thread: Rear door stove setup

The only reason I bought the County is so I can stop having nightmares about not getting ownership of ALL the factory P38 accessories... still looking though!!!

Ten out of ten for that one Ron, great idea

Mine set up is similar to this, but not lhd

Not my idea, it was a factory accessory I bought on the LR Aust clearance sale.

I like that.

Bugger carrying the useless gas stoves. Buy yourself a bush kettle or similar (I know the Aust Geographic shop sell one). I have the proper bush kettle and it is one of the best pieces of equipment we have bought. You can use any heat source to boil including just leaves and stick in the centre. We carry a small metho burner.
My wife was hesitant when I bought it about 8 years ago, but know would not be without it.

I have one but don't use it. One cannot carry it in the car after using it as it stinks from the tars/soot inside it.

Craig, I love the idea of the bush kettle/ ecobilly and having used one for the first time a few weeks ago, I'm definitely going to get one - the stove is for those occasions when a fire is out of the question.

I'm going to measure up the door space this weekend to see if I even have enough space for a shelf....and I downloaded the workshop manual so I reckon I'll be able to take the door lining off without too much hassle....as long as I don't break the retaining clips....which may be hard given my tendency to apply ham-fisted brute force to any problem.

Keep the ideas coming

I had to take the back door trim/card off when I fitted the Mulgo gas strut.

Very simple remove grab handle, gentle pri small plastic plate from behind internal door handle off.

Then just work your way around pull with your hands clip by clip, be firm and it will just come away.

Don't forget you wont be able open your drawer with shelf down.

Cheers

Go to Jaycar and buy a set of panel removal tools. I think they cost about $15 from memory buying mine. I sort of get wanting to carry a stove but I find it much easier to carry one of those propane type ovens.
The idea of a table is always a good one. If you put in roller drawers you could always make a lid for the drawers that could double as a table when the drawers are extended or be fully removable, something I am thinking about.
