my waffle board storage solution
« on: October 23, 2005, 21:16:45 »
been busy today as i could not get out and play so i decided to sort out a nagging  problem about storing waffle boards on the disco i first took apart an old bike rack i had and wrell what do you think can be used in both up and down positions the rachet strap holds every think in nice and tight all is well secure and are easy on and off keeps the mud out of the vehicle and frees up valuble space in boot the only downside is if i blow a punture i have to take all of to get to wheel but it only takes a few more minutes ive put some more pics up in my galleries if any one intrested regards colin

Not bad
didnt have space in the 90 to store mine and didnt want to cut them down to lie on the floor so they are bolted on threaded bar through bulkhead on behind drivers/passenger seats
couple of big washers and some wing nuts and thee out of the way and didnt have to cut them down

 :wink:

i havent cut mine either they also fit in back but i hated putting in there when i was on the challenge as i used alot and they just fill with mud but are probably the most used bit of kit i have great faith in them now i have used them gonna fit some sort of grab strap to them as are a pain to pull up out of mud holes some sort of shortend YELLOWSTRAP would be a good idear  matey

Hey Colin,

You ought to fix them along the sides as body protection, in case you make it fall over again.  :wink:  :D
