Looking for ideas please.
We have a 2005 Prado 120 GXL Petrol, Red/Maroon with the standard stuff on it plus:
- Dual battery setup to run the Engal (Two Century batteries, one deep cycle. With Traxide SC80-12 unit)
- UHF
- BFG All Terrains Tyres
- Portable Air Compressor
- Had it a couple of years now and will most likely keep it for a good number of years still. Even it is getting up around the 180,000KM mark.
- Done some touring up to Alice Springs and around the place
Now we are looking for some ideas and opinions for setting the Prado up with some more gear for a good touring 4x4.
Being RED I'm struggling to decide what colour and style of bull bar to install. I like the look of the ARB bars but the only bar and colour I have seen that suits the RED is the alloy Sovereign Bar.
We mainly want it for touring and camping weekends really. Nothing to serious off road.
Main things I'm looking at doing is:
- Lift Kit - The standard original springs are getting a bit saggy. Recommended brands for good touring springs and shocks suited for Outback travel up the centre etc??
- Bull Bar - What colour would suit the red and preferences on the styles available??
- Roof Racks / Basket - Thinking about just a rhino bar setup or ARB. Mainly for chucking some fire wood on top, shovel, fuel.
Any thoughts.
Wiring still needs cleaning up. Two Century batteries, one deep cycle. With Traxide SC80-12 unit.
