Hey AU123
With a name like that u too must be in Australia
Which state do u call home ?

Nice! Thanks. Will take a look

Saw you saying you were doing a MTB build as well. That box is great looking. Curious what it looks like once you've got the bike mounts and how the bike fits!

Yeah mate, Sydney.
Decided on another route for now tho. Will keep this idea in back burner tho if I decide to change it up later

Thanks! I am still deciding on which track to use, and have to order a few things (and some are proving difficult to source).

A couple small updates.

Track for bike mount
I have some 8020 t-track rails to mount the Unaka thru-axle mounts to for my MTB/ATB. Will be installing these soon (just finalising the hardware). I have a post looking for compatible tie down rings to secure to this track as well — viewtopic.php?p=448427#p448427.

I plan to install some additional L track style tie down rings for securing points on the side of my drawers. Looking at these or similar — https://boaboffroad.com.au/product/load ... gle-oltd5/

Beeb n Co
I handed over a wad of $$ for a full set of Beeb N Co window covers — https://beebnco.co.uk
The fit is perfect and blocks out all light. Haven't had a chance to use them on trip yet. We are heading towards summer here, so won't have a chance for a while to see how well they keep in the warmth — and haven't insulated the van as yet (still thinking though that).

I’ve had a slight change in direction re mounting my MTB on the drawer (and some delays whilst just doing life)

I picked up some 8020 section and looked at various methods, before settling on a Sure Components flush mount rail.

I’ll be mounting the Unaka fork mount to a Al or Stainless Steel plate, hitch will then attach to the L-track in the Sure Component rail.
