MANNELL MOTORS 150 KAKADU

those black widow drawers look great.

except for the little bit of exposed trim

Yessss i think the same thing...BUT in the end i guess in the accessory game when companys like ARB and Blackwidow ect have to work around OEM design sometimes not everything can be done.

I was thinking of putting some spare carpet from Black Widow over it to make it look neater.

How does the black wido fridge slide handle the 60l. I have an 80 l waeco with the same foot print but all of the drawers i have seen with the inbuilt fridge slide will only handle up to the 45l or so

It will handle the weight no problems and if it shares the same foot print it will fit too

Awesome Giles, can't wait for pics and a review. I was wondering if you could take a couple pics of the front recovery points for us too?

Cheers

me too, thanks

if you have a cargo barrier, i'm fairly certain the waeco won't fit in. i only just fit the 60ltr waeco in the back, sitting on top of blackwidow drawers.

i think if you remove the handles the 80L might fit?

I'm just comparing specs, the arb 60L is H428 x W450 x D845 and the waeco 80L dimensions are H455 x W500 x D790 but the handles put the depth out to 940 so sadly I think it might be a bit big... Would be great if someone could try it out though.

The arb fridge also has the benefit of the way the lid opens where as the waeco lid might hit the door frame.

We don't have the points on our kakadu but here's a pic of one of many.

Hi Giles have you guys put a new bash plate on your Kakadu? it seems none are made for the KDSS 150's..

That's a pretty sweet rig Giles......looking forward to getting my new rig sorted out!

just a question with teh Air Locker
Does this impact ont he Centre/Rear Diff Locks that comes standard in the Kakadu?
Also, When you installed the Old Man Emu Suspension Upgrade, did it mean you lost the KDSS suspension in the rear?

you don't loose rear KDSS just the sports/normal/comfy settings...I don't believe the centre/rear diff lock are affected in any way my Giles should confirm.

Giles, If a basic punter like me were to buy all this build-up from you, how much would it all cost? I guess Nick gets a bit of a discount.
