I like this design. What holds the shovel to stop it rattling around or falling off the mount hooks - is it sandwiched by yje tyre against the bracket? Bit hard to see,
As an option for those interested, I pick up a second hand ARB H/Lift jack BRKT that clamps the shovel handle quite well (do even hang a 12mm steel cable spool off it ocassionally). Adjusted brkt stand off distance from rim dish face so the shovel mouth pulls up against tyre sidewall. Secures well.
Millweld rear bar - swing spare wheel carrier & dual jerry (tools in one J holder). Behind (back of) spare wheel / carrier have fixed a reverse light brkt and adapted a Kaymar H/Lift jack Brkt back of swing arm to secure jack (tucked away in between door and spare wheel)..
And yes thats a tree branch that fell on the top (few blending scratches only).
