Jiffy Wall-It Wall Mount Rack Compatibility ?
« on: Nov 11, 2012, 05:14 PM »
Hey All,

I am wondering if there are any anglers out there that have invested in the Jiffy Wall-It (http://www.jiffyonice.com/EComStore/product/wall-it,3657,26.htm) to mount your auger up on the wall? 

I am asking as I have a Stealth STX model (about 5-6yrs old now) that has one vertical-ish type handle and another wide horizontal U shaped handle:

My concern is that because I don't have both "U" shaped handles that it won't mount on the rack when it's in the open position. I think my auger probably has enough "width" to it that it will hang on the rack but not sure..

Comments very much appreciated.

You have "ice house handles". I use one like this since it is rated for 60 lbs if screwed to a stud. My 2 hp Stealth rode home from Waubay Lake hanging on one of these. Actually this is a nice feature of having one vertical handle. http://www.amazon.com/Tornado-J2000-Drywall-Mountable-J-Hook/dp/B000SDETH4/ref=sr_1_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1352676309&sr=1-3&keywords=heavy+duty+hooks
It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.

Hey there Sir.  Go figure you would be the first to respond!!!  ;D

I never thought about something CHEAPER and much more economical like that... I could probably put one each in a stud and it would hang just fine with those in that link.  I am thinking for at home in the garage too; not in the shanty.  I don't have any studs in our shanty to anchor into, and probably wouldn't bring it in the permie anyways.  I suppose one would also work hanging it on the vertical handle as you mentioned.

Here's my other thought though.... I keep the auger in an auger bag and was thinking it would probably hang just fine in the bag on that Wall-It system.  That said, I don't know if it would hang alright in the bag on these hooks; would need to have it out of the bag I think in that case.  Which... would probably be just fine too, keep it in the bag when at the lake.

Thanks for the input!!!!
