Wanted: Fitting instructions for Ausguard Cargo Barrier

[Fozzy Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Fozzy]

Managed to score a second-hand Ausguard Cargo Barrier but the fitting instructions are absent. Would anyone have a copy of the fitting instructions for a 120 series Prado?

Cheers,

Dave

Hi Dave
I've got an Ausguard in my 120,been there for about 7 years,so have know idea where the fitting instuctions are now.
But lets see if i can help.First up the Ausguard fits in the normal spot behind the second row seats but also comes with brackets to mount it behind the first row seats when you fold the second row seats up.When new they come with 4 brackets to bolt between the hood linning and grab handles above the second and third row seats ( bracket about 6inches long with a short 45deg bend in one end and has 3 holes in it). A short piece of wire rope with a fitting on each end attaches to the grab handle bracket and the other end fits to the front of the Ausguard,fitting location welded to front of the Ausguard. Bottom mounts I think are just flat bar (cant see mine as they are under the draws) they bolt to holes located in the floor under third row seats and the other end to the Ausguard.When you move the barrier forward I think it's only a matter of undoing 4 bolts move it forward bolt the top in and extend the bottom bracket with another bit of flat bar which come with the barrier when new.Hope the is clear to you Dave because I know what to do and how it looks but not so easy to put in words .Pictures sure would make it easy but I have got draws and top shelf in the way for a good shot

Thanks Quicky, I reckon I'm OK with it, just one of those things where there's a bigger comfort factor for me with "official" instructions.

Cheers,

Dave, I had my 2nd hand cargo barrier fitted by a mob at Yeerongpilly.
Caddy Storage I think was their name. They are the distributors in QLD for the ausguard brand.
