I take my 4 banger off the truck every trip, so I end up putting it on solo ~40 times a season. I've got the process down to a simple no-hassle few minute exercise to get it installed. The secret is to LOOSEN the straps a ton before you take it off the vehicle. This way when you mount it again, the straps lock and connect easily without any hassle. Then I use a drill w/bit to quickly tighten the straps and a ratchet w/bit to finish the tightening. For a while I was leaving the straps tightened and it was a total PIA to install the thing.

Super simple
Love my 2 banger...stopped by the store and got great tips for mounting the new quick release bracket. Took me a few tries to get the strap to settle into its slot, but after I figured that out the rest was simple. I've been through a car wash and the River Quiver is not going anywhere. It is on there for the season...and I love it!

Game Changer!!!
Allows you to utilize your quiver easily. Set up took a little bit, but well worth watching the instruction video a couple times. I know I will be using mine A LOT more due to the ease of being able to attach and detach so effortlessly. Great Product!

Not as quick and easy as expected
The install process to get the pins to actually lock in was an absolute pain in the ass! I am using an ARB base rack and took quite a lot of adjustment to get the straps to fit right the first time. I think that once theyve had a chance to stretch and break in theyll be easier the next time around, but it took me forever to get them to lock in properly.
Be aware depending on your rack and access, you may be in for a longer ordeal than the video makes it seem. It's also CRITICAL that you allow the locking mechanism to fold all the way up or else youll miss the slot for the peg to fit into. Overall, it fits snugly though with no movement or rattles and Im pretty happy with them now that I have everything on and secure.

Fantastic product. Would like a 2nd lock.
Finally pulled the trigger and bought a Euro 2-banger with the QR mounts. Awesome! Can't wait to put it to use this season.....only hesitation is, thinking perhaps I should've gotten the 4-banger!
I would like to add a 2nd keyed lock - meaning, replacing the blank on the 2nd mount with a lock that uses the same key. Is that possible? A 2nd lock with a different key would be another option but would prefer matched. please let me know if you sell these locks separately (or should I be checking with Kuat for that?
