quick release latch for slide on camper/box

I am building a slide on box for my fg649 and am stuggling to find a supplier for a heavy duty tie down latch. It needs to be quick release for taking the box off and on. I have had a look for over centre fasteners and toggle type latches. Can anyone suggest a supplier of these?

I don't know it they would sell them to you, but the latches used on Kaymar rear bars look reasonably solid (sold through ARB).
I'll be going to the 4x4 show in Sydney later this month, so I will keep an eye out to see if anyone there can provide that sort of thing.

Great. Thanks for your help. I managed to find the blue handled ones and I've been told they are load rated to 500kg. We will put it to the test hopefully.

Is time such a problem that it is impractical to use a bolted clamp. Would have thought it would be much stronger and less likely to come undone

Ben (FG4OZ) sent me some pictures of his new camper (aswell as some racy photos of him in his pink tutu), its only right they go on his thread
so heres what the tie downs are holding down
looks good Ben and lots of room up front for a dirt bike or 2
still love the look of that suspension lift and wheels
gotta get some for myself

Ill keep the tutu photos for another post :victory:
