A VEHICLE-mounted awning is an awesome bit of kit to have on your 4x4, but for some users they may not be something they want to keep fitted to the car full-time. If you’re only using your car for one camping trip a year, it might be worth removing the accessories from the roof rack to reduce fuel consumption and preserve them from UV damage or thieving hands.
Unbolting an awning is not a difficult job, but it’s a task made even easier with these quick-release mounting brackets from Aussie manufacturer RacksBrax.
RacksBrax has developed a range of hitches to make mounting items like awnings, traction boards or fishing rod holders quick and easy, and by adding extra parts you can make swapping these rack-mounted accessories quick and easy. Add another set of the mounts to your garage wall and you then have somewhere to store your gear when it’s not on the car.
