I just picked up some QuickFist clamps that I'm going to mount to my crossbars and roof rack. Figure these will be perfect for my trip to OBX to carry a shovel and the fishing poles... And instead of poles, ill carry an axe while wheeling/camping.
Will post up pics once installed.
What are you guys using?
I just throw the shovel in the back, really need to look into something else.Quote:

Because I have unistrut bars mounting stuff is real easy I just bolt stuff on as needed.
That's actually what I'm bolting these to. Then its like having a universal holder up there.Quote:

I keep a full sized shovel and ax on the roof rack. I just bought large heavy duty springs from a hardware store. No rattle, and they don't sun rot like bungees.
These worked out quite well although i had to alter my installation plans a bit due to shovel handle length and load bar locations. Basically ended up using some SS clamps to secure the quickfist to the rack, then wrapped a few rounds of electrical tape just to hide the shiny metal.... and whaaalllaaaaaa

.... remind me to check my garage clearance lol
not trying to derail thread or knocking any mounts. i just take my e-tool along. it does a great job while camping or wheeling and takes up virtually no room. just a thought. by the way, this is an e-tool

Ive still got to get some of these quikfist clamps, even found a vendor local that stocks them!
Sometimes those folding shovels just cant reach what you need to dig!
