      With only 11 sleeps left till we hit the road we finally got a break in the weather and opened the camper and started packing. So now the only things that we are unsure as to how to arrange will be the back of the Prado.

      Lucky enough to have the week off before we go so plenty of time to tinker away and try and get it right. I am sure we will change things around as we go along.

            Crikey, still got some mods to before the GTG, I haven't even got time to mention them let alone get them done!

            Looks like another trip with a half finished rig might get a couple of jobs finished before we head though.

            Cheers Andrew

              Mate, I have been ready since Christmas last year (the only exception was the sand flag & I got that in May) when I bought the CT.

                Planning on a mod when I get to bendleby. Waiting on an amts diff drop kit so it may well get fitted up there.

                The rig is a never ending project like sdo many others out there. No plans to rush anything else before the trip.

                    Not even close. Working two jobs + managing the property + helping school the kids = very little time for the prado
                    Hell I haven't even had time to clean it since getting home from the simpson a couple of weeks ago!
                    Will have lots of very late nights between now and the GTG.
                    Sigh, Ben.

                      I am sure you will find plenty of people who will kindly stand around and offer you advice while doing it at Bendleby.

                        I don't even have my car back yet. I also have another 3 weeks working away from home so it will be a bit of a battle.

                            Ben - if it makes you feel any better, I haven't cleaned the prado since last christmas, just before we went down to Yorkes for our annual two week trip!! Has it seriously been 8 months already???

                            As for me, I have a few things that must go in.
                            1: ARB compressor
                            2: Dual battery solenoid for charging the camper
                            3: UHF mic extension and speaker extension (moving from current location to drivers side pillar)
                            4: Full fluid replacement (diffs, gearbox, transfer case, coolant, sump, brake fluid etc)
                            5: New brake pads all round
                            6: Fire extinguishers either side of the middle seats. Got two sitting there, just gotta find the time to screw them in!
                            7: Full tyre rotation and flipping the tyres on the rims (white letters inside now)
                            8: There's something very important that I'm forgetting still....
                            9: Oh yeah, the brake controller for the camper

                            For the camper:
                            1: service bearings and hubs/brakes
                            2: Add some 12v sockets for running the LED tube lights
                            3: Wire up the second battery so I get another day or so off the fridge
                            4: Find the leak in the water tank hose...

                            The worse thing is I'm in Europe the next two weeks for work. I have a grand total of 2 weekends to get all this in when I get home...... Looks like i'll be borrowing the old man's garage a few nights!
                            Diesel Prado with various things...

                              Just did fire extinguisher and inverter. Now waiting on front recovery points to be installed...having all sorts of trouble getting them but apparently they are "on the way". May require a tantrum if not done by next week ;-(
                              Then need to do a practice pack before deciding on a roof rack bag or not. Need to take a holiday to plan the holiday!
