    Thy look very similar to the GNV ones. From the photos, it appears that the stand off bars on the GNV are a bit further out from the vehicle, which enables their use as a sidestep (with non stick tape). The cross section diameter of the tube may be a little less, can't really tell from the photos. I think (from memory) the GNV has four cross members between the slider and stand off (need to check this when I get back home). I'm not sure for the photos wheter Oldsalts are like this, but the rear of the slider part of the GNV is closed off.

    Otherwise they look much the same and would do the same job, no doubt both products look good.

    I wish I had a trolley jack when I was fitting mine.

    Cheers
    Mike

    Craig - here's the pics you requested ...
    taken looking straight down from the drivers seat ...


    looking towards the rear ...


    they hardly stick out at all, which is how I like them, I didn't want to use them as a step, and I find the ones that stick out too far tend to "connect" with my ankle when getting in & out - ouch !!

    Today I continued with the "rear wheel carrier" project ... put it all back together and made the necessary "adjustments" ... all went well and I'm pleased with the result. Now I have room for that long range tank I've been looking at ...

    Does the wheel slope away from the vehicle at the top as I've seen in other pics of the Dolium RWC? I've wondered if it was the particular fitting or that they are designed that way.

    Off Road Equipment.

    Hi Craig, in your last post to 'Old Salt', were you referring to his Spare Wheel carrier, or to an earlier discussion about Rock Sliders?
    I am interested in the latter, and if that is the case, would you oblige with his contact details, or at least let me know when he contacts you.
    I hope he has resurrected his business, and is back in production. As I am also in QLD, should make 'dealing' easier.
    Thanks,
    Don.
