finally got something worthy of building & keeping..
08 GXL V6 prado
just under 100 on the clock with full service history
5sp auto, dual climate control for passenger and driver plus rear aircon
absolutely stock, not one accessory or option fitted when purchased last week...
plan is to keep this one as stock looking as possible but have it do everything we want it to do. That and mrs ricecracker has strict criteria like the spare wheel cover has to stay on (can't go up in tyre size), only 1 aerial etc and things like xrox bars aren't either of our cup of tea. This will be her daily plus used for trips, we're heading up to fitzroy crossing in a few weeks...
so, on order is:
- arb deluxe winchbar
- tigerz 1200lb winch
- 40mm king lift with raw shocks
- mickey STZ in standard size
- outback accessories dual batt tray - fitted but not wired yet
- digoptions satnav bluetooth stereo - fitted but haven't done the reverse cam yet
- sand grabba mats throughout
- tinted slimline visors & clear bonnet protector
and to transfer onto it once the bullbar goes on:
100w hid rallye 4000's
100w hid bulbs in the bar fog lights
2 way
and this weekend should see my old tracklander with an 80w panel sitting up top with ctek management and a genuine towbar bolted on i bought off gumtree.
then later in the year, rear diff lock, haven't decided on electric or air yet.

Just for the record, I don't make a habit of pulling overweight but when we packed our house up into the big trailer, since it was a 2500 trip, I thought I'd visit the weighbridge before I left Perth. Got quite a shock when my combined was 6.7t and the trailer was 4.2t. So I unpacked all the heavy things and put them in a different trailer to spread the load and got it down under 3t (which the trailer is rated for) and a friend brought it up with his ute. To give you an idea, here is a pic of the size of the thing..
