| | Frames | Explanation:
I think these might be metal frames that can be mounted or stowed away on the rack. Just a vague idea that these objects are sometimes called "outriggers". So outrigger frames might be a solution. If this is a military vehicle it could make sense. I imagine them to be a light protective framework. Hope it helps. |

| Grading comment Many thanks to all. Sorry for the delay in awarding points. Went with this in the end although struts could have worked too.
