Spade mountings

winchman · Jan 2, 2015

I am thinking of mounting my spade inside the back door, of my Disco so I have seen these.
Quick Fist Clamps - Quick Fist Clamps
But obviously I am looing for a cheaper alternative if any one knows of one?

you want to "quick fist" & mount a "spade" through its "back door"

I am not sure thats legal - or at leasr PC

yu might want to rephrase that

How about this idea - if you've got the materials knocking about that is??

Couple of busted/worse for wear ratchet straps - cut down to a short enough length - rivet these to the door, eh voila! You might also get away with the same thing with using Velcro strips or some other 'strappy' material.

The key is obviously having a thickness that can be riveted onto the carrier!

Hope this helps.

I am also well known locally for my short arms and deep pockets, I can even peel an orange in my pocket
After all why pay £10 for a pair of mounts when I think the spade was only £1

SPade mounting kit is just a bit of metal strip shaped like this ____I----I___ with a short strap riveted to it. and a bit like this for the blade of the spade ___--------------___

I'll see if I have pics of mine.
