    It's a pick head bracket - part of the famous "gardening tool attachment" set

    Sound like all you need is the pick head - 5lb.

    Tools, or brackets? Either getting pretty hard to come by.

    Depending on who you believe - axes are essentially impossible to find and impossible to prove unless you bought them at auction yourself, pick heads rare enough that there was serious discussion about reproductions (but still in civilian production) and shovels can be had if you look hard.

    Say something in the $100-200 bracket for all the tools bought separately?

    Brackets - I've no idea - you need to know someone or buy the whole car!

    G'day DaveS3

    Most pioneer tool brackets are sourced from Wreckers or Swap Meets, you could try Four Wheel Drives in Blackburn South, but they could be Exxie

    It helps if you know what you are looking for, have a good look at a members vehicle or study the photos on REMLR, price can be anything from $5 a bit to $


    The tools are Australian made Cyclone or Trojan, there is a thread on REMLR that deals with them.


    cheers
