I actually have one of these harnesses for sale if anyone is interested.
Tbe harness does keep the Maxtrax off the wheel and are a good thing if you done have a roof rack or itis full of other gear.[B]Tasmania 2015 GTG Committee Member[/B] 2005 Prado Pilbara, Sovereign Bar, Driver & passenger weathershields, UHF TX3220, Spare wheel spaces, Lifestyle rack, Genuine front & midrow seatcovers, Genuine front & midrow rubber floor mats, ARB 47 litre fridge/freezer, Hilux washer jets, BF Goodridge A/T, Radiator protection plate, Dual battery tray and isolator, ARB 2.5m awning, Rhino heavy duty areo bars, MSA rear wheel bin, MAXTRAX

I think you're on the money there Andrew. If you've got a rear bar like the OP, the harness is the way to go... the extra kgs on the back door is not good for the hinges. Regardless, I'm sure the OP's mate has since invested in a harness or now chucks them on the roof...

I made some brackets for my Tracklander roofrack and carried them flat on the rack. But they took up so much space so I got these:

I carry four Max Trax and they are padlocked in 2 places.Dave

Mine are stored on the roof rack, though I would like to get some mounting system that doesn't cost as much as the track themselves.
Has anyone come across some cheapish mounting system with Lock for roof rack. I normally remove them while wife is driving around CBD, though our last trip down south I didn't think I would need them, but came across a great track down to the beach, then instantly regretted it. We were on our own.
The other option I guess is strap to the Cargo barrier though will prevent some visibility in the rearview.[B][2007 GXL 120 3.0L D4[COLOR="#FF0000"]D[/COLOR] Auto][/B] [I]Mods:[/I] [COLOR="#DAA520"]Bilstein [/COLOR][COLOR="#0000FF"]Shocks [/COLOR]& [COLOR="#DAA520"]King [/COLOR]2" Lift Springs - 265/70/17 [COLOR="#3366ff"]Cooper [/COLOR]AT/3s Tyres - [COLOR="#FF0000"]ARB [/COLOR]Deluxe bullbar - LED Spotlights & Worklights - Snorkel - [COLOR="#008000"]BushSkinz [/COLOR]bash plates - 2.2m Alloy Overlander Full Rack - 2.5m [COLOR="#8B4513"]Wanderer [/COLOR]Awning - [COLOR="#FF0000"]GME [/COLOR]TX3120S UHF & [COLOR="#FF0000"]GME [/COLOR]AE4703 6.6dBi - [COLOR="#FF8C00"]Milford [/COLOR]Cargo Barrier - [COLOR="#FF0000"]JVC [/COLOR]indash DVD - [COLOR="#FF8C00"]Maxtrax [/COLOR]- Pulling a heavily modified [COLOR="#3366ff"]Jayco [/COLOR]Dove Pop Top Camper
