There’s something special about putting together a 4WD setup that is genuinely Australian.
Not just designed for Australian conditions, but designed, engineered and made here.
That’s exactly what you get when you pair a Destination4WD awning with RacksBrax quick release awning hitches.
Both businesses are proudly Australian. Destination4WD designs, manufactures and assembles its awnings in Australia, using Australian canvas and materials, while RacksBrax is a wholly Australian-owned business with its team of designers, engineers, manufacturers and suppliers based in Australia.
Two Australian businesses. One smart 4WD setup.
Destination4WD’s D180 and D270 freestanding awnings are designed specifically around the demands of 4WD touring.
The D270 provides up to 12.4 square metres of shade, with a compact 2.2-metre base and extendable arms that allow the awning to deliver substantial coverage while remaining compact on the vehicle.
Destination4WD also uses Australian-made canvas designed to provide UV protection and is water resistant to protect against mould and mildew.
It’s an awning built for the Australian touring environment.
A well-built, premium awning should not live permanently on your vehicle; protecting your investment is important. That’s where RacksBrax comes in.
The RacksBrax XD Destination Adaptor has been specifically designed for the Destination4WD 270 Awning and is used with the RacksBrax XD Hitch to provide quick release capability.
Instead of repeatedly undoing nuts and bolts whenever you want to remove the awning, the RacksBrax quick release awning system lets you quickly release the awning from the vehicle.
Fast on for camping. Fast off when you’re finished.
Your 4WD probably spends considerably more time on the road than it does at a campsite. Leaving a large awning permanently mounted means carrying additional weight and aerodynamic bulk even when you don’t need it.
Removing the Destination4WD awning when you’re not travelling can make your vehicle more practical for everyday use, while also allowing you to store the awning away from unnecessary exposure to sun, rain and road grime.
And because RacksBrax makes removal quick and straightforward, there’s less reason to leave your expensive camping equipment on the roof simply because taking it off is a hassle.
The RacksBrax XD Hitch is engineered by Australian mechanical engineers using finite element analysis (FEA) and physical load testing to validate its specified loading.
The hitch body is manufactured from UV-stabilised glass-reinforced nylon, meaning the hitch body itself cannot rust. That is particularly relevant for equipment designed to spend its life outdoors.
Destination4WD takes a similarly considered approach to its awnings, using stainless steel, aluminium and Australian-made canvas in its construction. The D180 and D270 awnings are manufactured in Cairns, Queensland.
The result is an Australian-made awning paired with an Australian-engineered and manufactured quick-release system – both ideal for camping and touring in harsh Australian conditions.
The Destination4WD D270 is designed to provide large, square coverage while remaining relatively compact when packed. Its freestanding design, extendable arms and rapid setup are intended to make camping easier.
RacksBrax adds another layer of convenience. When you’re travelling, the awning is securely mounted and ready to deploy. When the trip is over, it can be removed and stored.
That means your 4WD doesn’t have to remain permanently configured for camping.
Adventure mode when you need it. Everyday mode when you don’t.
There’s a natural fit between the two brands. Destination4WD focuses on building premium Australian-made awnings for Australian conditions. RacksBrax focuses on making awnings easier to mount, remove and store through precision-engineered quick-release awning systems.
Together, they provide a smart solution for 4WD owners who value Australian manufacturing, quality materials, engineering and practical design.
And perhaps that’s the biggest benefit. You’re not simply buying another bracket or another awning. You’re building a touring system around products that have been developed by Australian businesses that understand how Australians actually use their 4WDs.
The Destination4WD + RacksBrax combination brings together two complementary ideas:
- A quality Australian-made awning.
- A precision-engineered Australian quick-release system.
The result is a setup that’s ready when you are - without requiring your awning to remain on the vehicle every day.
Destination4WD + RacksBrax.
Australian made. Australian engineered. Fast on for adventure. Fast off when you’re done.

Add RacksBrax Quick Release

Why Remove Your Awning?

Australian Engineering Meets Australian Manufacturing
The RacksBrax XD Hitch is engineered by Australian mechanical engineers using finite element analysis (FEA) and physical load testing to validate its specified loading.
