G'day RogerthatV2, when you had the ARB bullbar and winch fitted, did you experience front suspension sag? I have just fitted these and it appears as though I have a fair bit of front suspension sag on my Kakadu.

Sorry no ARB bar here, TJM Bar and winch for me. My front did drop around 10 to 15mm after a couple of weeks of the bar going on but I upgraded the suspension about 3 weeks after as my draws arrived. You will notice it under braking more then the looks.

My new Drifta Draws arrived last week and I spend 10 minutes today trying to work out how to mount them and my new ARB Fridge Slide. I also picked myself up the new ARB Fridge Tie Down Kit, looks like it will work with my trusty Waeco.
As Sam (hookedon4wding) has said, I was surprised how easy the draws slide. The build quality is also great. Perfect for our needs and a great deal including the table which also acts as a pull out table when you want to do something inside the car.
I have the side panels to cut, glue and install next weekend as well as mounting the draws. I think I will do what Sam has done with the tie down point and a turn buckle.
I also got the internal storage tray.
Not bad for what I paid, not as strong as the Outback System I had but will do our needs for years to come. In and out in 5 minutes max so it has won me. I will post some of the finished product ASAP. That reminds me I also have to finish installing our Drifta camper kitchen in readiness for summer!
Nice slider how much?

Do you mean the ARB Fridge Slide? I think it retails at $245.00... Seems to be very good quality and well built. Have not used it as yet but, over summer thought it will get used heaps.

I've got an airtec snorkel and you cannot see it from the drivers seat unless you peer around the A pillar while driving. It is very unobtrusive even to the point that my wife didn't notice it until I pointed it out and she was standing outside the car. Pity all mods and accessories weren't that easy.

Fully agree with Paul Darren, the Airtec cannot be seen from inside the cab (drivers seat). Love the looks and we have been through a big of water and all good so far.

This is a fantastic build up thread and has been very helpful for me as I ponder the next vehicle purchase and accessories. Well done on producing such a good looking and functional setup!
You mentioned that the Drifta Drawers: "...In and out in 5 minutes max so it has won me." I presume you're talking about the drawer system . I've been looking for a drawer system that can be installed and removed quickly. That'll give me the maximum flexibility.
Thanks mate, appreciated. The draws are great and yes they are in and out in 5, I am quicker than that, lol.
We originally bought the Outbacks and they are / were great but with the arrival of our little girl a few months back we wanted the flexibility of the 7 seats back. The picnic table is an added bonus.
Cheers Daniel
