Cool Richard, although I'm unable to view the gallery Question


Can you tell me a couple questions I've been wondering - is the swing away mount quick and easy to manuver? And in the open position, does it 'lock' out at a fixed position or does it swing freely?
 I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

It swings out freely with the assistance of the gas strut, it doesn't lock out but is held out once again by the gas strut

Thanks Chris.

Steven; Took about 11 hours, remember I haven't done one of these and another would take a lot less,
not sure of the weight but a lot less than the Kaymar as it hasn't got the steel replacement rear bar.
I got the bar from 4x4 intelligence in Victoria, cost just over $1300
