Thanks mate. It is just clamped with a bolt and nylok nut on each side. Pretty average actually

So had the 1000km service today. Turns out it's basically a safety check. No oil change. And Free.!!

First oil change is at 10,000kms

Then over the road to ARB to finally have the ARB Base Rack system fitted. I really like this system. We are a LONG Way from the old single piece steel rack. This thing is a well thought out adaptive ans flexible system. Stoked.

Out with the tape measure. Exactly 2.0m from the ground to the top of the rack. Happy days.

Looks great Darren, really top notch.

ARB roof system?
Maybe a copy of the rhino pioneer system.

Either way it looks sweet mate

Nah similar concept but significantly different. The only thing that is similar is they are both a flat rack. There is a fee players in this market now. The ARB Base Rack system is the lightest weight (By A Lot!) And is also the closest fitting to the roof. Impressive bit of kit to be honest.

I was closed minded when I walked into ARB with a smirk thinking this will just be an over priced version of everything else on the market. Once I had a good look at it ans realised how versatile and flexible it was it became a no brainer. SOLD on First sight.

Here is a cross section profile 9f the Base Rack System. The out side dove tail tenon acts as a keyword and there is a full set of accessories available that clamp to the keywords profile.

The removable sides clamp to that keyway too. I bought 2 awning mounts that mount to that and I can remove the sides and awning in a couple of minutes. Very kool tech.

I have Big-O Sliders side steps waiting to go on and am expecting my Snorkel to be delivered any day now. Both of those things will need it back in the shed so I will wait a little while. I have got a bit on at the moment.
