    Off road equipment.

    Just something I added to my D3 today - might make those slippery tracks a bit easier to negotiate ... heh heh

    I also fitted my Traxide dual battery system ... plus wired up two power points in the rear ... a very good system and easy to fit.



    fitted the fridge ...



    and my Boab water tank and fire extinguisher ...



    still got to get a tap for the hose ... and the tie-downs for the fridge, but it's all coming together for the camping season.....

    Hi Old Salt - what is the fridge slide bolted to ( some type of home made floor?) - and in turn, what is that "floor" mounting bolted to? It doesnt look like you used the factory tie down points??
    cheers!

    Oldsalt,

    Do the middle row seats fit back upright with the water tanks behind ?.

    Neat system but I assume it reduces the rear cargo area slightly.

    What cargo barrier do you have fitted.

    George

    I made a "new" floor - after I took my "third row" seats out - it's 18mm ply, bolted down to three points - and the fridge slide has it's own ply base (to raise it up enough to clear the tailgate when sliding out) and there are 60mm bolts which go through the fridge slide/base plus the "new" floor and are held in by t-nuts.
    here's the floor...


    it has a small access hatch in it so I can use it for storage ...

    Hi George,
    yes the seats and headrests fit back "upright" and can be used as normal.
    It does reduce the storage area "slightly" but it makes the cargo barrier a 90degree upright (and gives me 50 lts of water) and it works well for the fitting of my drawer system (being built). The cargo barrier is from "Autosafe" from Boronia (Melbourne) it was $567.
    cheers
