Riding Saddle Pack Saddle Conversions
Digger dog converts riding saddles into fully featured pack saddles
They can use our heavy duty webbing breast plates and britching
More stable and better fit than a traditional pack saddle tree, you know that your saddle fits your pack horse and how you rig it
The kit uses standard pack bags (panniers) that can fit a traditional pack saddle
Mountings are provide for a top pack and storm cover and surcingle location D rings
The hanger is structurally fully located to your saddle so it cannot move in carrying the loads with serge or suede under lining to protect the saddle
We can make from photos and measurements of your saddle, but the preferred method is to send your saddle to our workshop.
We then measure, design and make the hanger to fit your saddle to give the best result. Then send the saddle plus the conversion kit fully assembled back to you and all you have to do is some breast plate and britching adjustments to suit your pack horse
The hanger cost is about $450 and you need to add the cost of the 2 panniers and the other optional items such as a breast plate, britching, top pack, and storm cover
