Australian 4WD Action - June 2018

(vip2019) #1

  • Custom built rocksliders

  • CTEK D250 DC charger

  • 130Ah SSB AGM Battery

  • Custom built dual tyre swingaway


Keeping with the theme of simplicity and reliability, Reg has
set up his 12v to charge the essentials. “Inside the storage
box I have a CTEK D250S and a Narva fuse block for my
accessories”, explains Reg. “Up the back of the box is a 130Ah
SSB AGM battery. Then on the headboard I have a few 12v
Ciga sockets, two USB points and an Anderson plug which
does everything I need it to.”
Barwork wise, Reg has built his own sliders to protect the
sills, as well as the custom dual tyre swingaway which still
allows him access to the tray. Up front is an MCC steel bar
which is home to a Domin8r 12,000LB winch and 28in lightbar.
