Yakima’s MOD System is about to land in Australia, giving 4WD owners a practical, modular solution for hauling gear. 

The system will be available from late October 2025 through authorised dealers, with the HomeBase starting at $1079, MOD Topper from $749, and accessories from $25.

“This is the gear-hauling solution Aussie drivers have been waiting for,” said Tracy Schweitzer, Senior Brand Manager for Yakima Australia. “The MOD System is built tough for serious off-roaders, but it’s just as at home with busy families juggling school runs, weekend sports, and spontaneous getaways. From campfires to commutes, it’s ready for whatever life throws in the back.”

At the core is the MOD HomeBase, the base unit of the drawer system. It installs in minutes with no drilling or modifications required. Built from sturdy aluminium, it carries 45kg in the drawer and 113kg on top. Heavy-duty slides and solid construction give a quiet, premium feel on- or off-road, while internal dividers and built-in attachment points allow connection of MOD Toppers, stretch nets, or an additional HomeBase. Drawers can also be locked with Yakima SKS Lock Cores (sold separately).

The MOD Topper is a half-side drawer add-on that attaches securely to the HomeBase in seconds using Yakima’s torque-limiting tool, no extra tools required. Its aluminium construction handles tough use, while heavy-duty slides ensure smooth operation on any terrain. Rated for 23kg, it’s ideal for tools, spares, or everyday gear, and also compatible with SKS locks.

The Australian MOD System includes robust drawer units, heavy-duty fridge slides, and stretch nets to keep gear secure over corrugations, bush tracks, and repeated loading. Already praised as a game changer in the USA, MOD has been tailored for Australia and built to withstand dust mud, and coastal spray.
