DRIFTA CAR BACK

the drifta car back being used in germany. We’re now sending these kitchens all over the world.

The DCB on the Murry River in SA. See how good the adjustable legs are, keeping it up off the ground, nice and level, and at a good height.

The DCB sits in the back of your vehicle, on top of existing drawers, or as one. The front draw compartment can be accessed while its still in the back. If you have other gear inside, you wont be able to access the two front drawers, as they pull out from the side. Although, the DCB can be incorporated onto a draw slide, much like a fridge slide, so it can be pulled right out, and you can access the front drawers also.

Shown here, the front draw, which is designed to hold up to two single burner stoves. We have stayed away from fitting 2 and 3 burner standard stoves, as then you need a gas bottle, which a lot of people dont want to carry. So you can store 2 x single burner butane stoves(similar then to a two burner stove ). These are stored in the back of the front draw. For a quick stop, these can be lifted out to be used.

The DCB can then be lifted out and set up anywhere on its freestanding leg system, the same as I have on my trailer kitchens. They fold down from underneath, are fully adjustable and very sturdy. Then the lid swings over and forms the extra benchspace, and is again supported by a leg, which is attached to the LHS when folded up ( you can just make this out is the top right photo )

It then gives you 1600 mm of laminated , nice and high bench space. You can see the two smaller drawers , the top one is a cutlery draw, and underneath is a draw which holds a plastic wash up tub, that can be lifted out. We can incorporate a hand pump on the fold out section, but many 4WDs have a water tank or similar, so this may not be necessary for everyone.

The DCB is very easy to carry by one or two people.

Once the legs are set down, and locked into place, they can be adjusted to suit the ground, and your desired cooking height.

The lid flips over, and is supported with the leg, which fits onto some clips on the back of the kitchen.

Then you can get out the pump and sink, and hook it up to a jerry can, for your water supply. It’s very handy being able to easily pump the water, rather than try to tip it out of a jerry can from the ground.

The single burner stove can be lifted out and set up. then you have a very functional kitchen ready to use.

The plastic sink can sit on the edge of the lid, so you have one hand to hold it , and the other to pump the water.

There are three drawers, all on rollers. Drawers are such a luxury when camping

This is the large draw on the end. Here I have my single burner stove, spare gas can, 2 x billies (one inside), frying pan, 6 plates, 6 bowls, toaster, tea, coffee, wind shield, and washing detergent.

The top draw from the side, is like a cutlery draw. I have all my cutlery, tongs, egg flip etc, bottle opener, black tape, pocket knife, lighter etc.

The lower side draw has the wash up tub. It is lifted out and then cups etc put back in the draw. Here I have the tub, pump, hose, 6 x cups, paper towel, dish cloth. Everything you need for a day trip to a weekend away.
