Fast off and save money: fuel efficiency

Vehicle Maintenance & Efficiency

Leave Your Awning at Home!

One of the best reasons to remove your awning when you don’t need it—such as during your daily weekday commute—is to counter rising fuel prices.

⛽ Fuel Economy

Reducing wind drag improves overall fuel consumption and cuts down on your weekly fuel bill.

🅿️ Urban Convenience

Lower vehicle clearance makes pulling into tight underground car parks completely stress-free.

☀️ Gear Longevity

Extend the lifetime of your canvas by storing it away from harsh Australian weather and UV rays.

With the RacksBrax HD Hitch, taking your awning off your roof rack takes only a few seconds. Paired with the RacksBrax Wall Mount, storing your awning safely at home away from damaging weather is effortless—while keeping it accessible for your next getaway.

Isn’t it better to spend your money on professional 4WD gear than on wasted fuel?

💡

Sleek Finish: The RacksBrax HD Hitches come with smooth Cover Inserts to fill the gap where your awning was, leaving a neat, streamlined look on the side of your vehicle when off-road gear isn't in use.


Take off on your next adventure!

Equip your setup with quick-release reliability built for Australian conditions.
