Hi Fellow Expanda owners,
Our stone guards are a trepeze style going from the width of the vehicle to the width of the camper under the A frame giving full protection. Each Stone Stomper is custom made to your measurements using heavy duty truck mesh (not shade cloth), giving a perfect fit, check out our web site at www.stonestomper.com.au
Installation is very simple taking less than an hour for the initial install then connecting and disconnecting takes less than 10 Seconds. Access to the back of the vehicle when hitched up is just a matter of pushing your shin against the mesh and the mesh stretches in or unclip two clips (3 seconds) and the mesh is out of your way.
Manufacture is around 1 week from order and we deliver Australia wide.
When camped the mesh is tucked back under the camper completely out of the way so you have unrestricted access to the front of your camper.
Some feed back below from a customer with a Stone Stomper and their family member with the same camper but travelling without a Stone Stomper and a two caravans the same make doing the same trip with a Stone Stomper and the damage without a Stone Stomper.
Thanks for looking
Christian

Hello Christian,
We have been back for a couple of weeks and I have just got around to
sending these images following our trip along the Gibb River Road. On the
trip my wife was sceptical as to the need for a Stone Stomper even though we
saw plenty of cardboard covering damaged back windows on wagons. We called
into our daughter at Pt Lincoln on the way home, they bought an identical
set up to us at the same time. Recently their trailer did a trip in the Lake
Eyre region and you can see from the photos the results of not having a
stone guard. My wife now also understands the benefits. Another benefit
of the Stone Stomper was a major reduction in dust build up on the back
window of the wagon.
Regards
Graham
Hello Christian,
Just back from Birdsville Races. Covered approx 540km's on dirt using the stone stomper. Ran with it on from Birdsville back to Quilpie just to be sure as the road was littered with stone on the narrow one lane tar sections..
My van is essentially a standard Evernew Caravan which has a mesh tray on the a frame.
Picture #1 is of my tray after travelling the dirt road from near Windorah to Birdsville. As can be noted, there is very little in the way of stones caught up on the tray.
Picture #2 is of an almost identical Evernew Caravan (my previous van infact) which travelled without a stone stomper. "Protecting" the front of the van was a rubber skirt attached to the vehicle. As can be seen, the tray is littered with stones of all shapes and sizes. The gas bottles had been peppered, the vynal on the van had been marked, the aluminium had been marked and clearance reflectors has been smashed.
No doubt you get reports back about useage but rarely would you get a response where two almost identical vans do an identical trip. I believe these photo's speak for themselves.
Regards
