Nice build mate. I'm new to the forum but have a set-up not unlike yours. No winch as yet, but great OME lift to compensate. Also, my features the sahara bar versus the deluxe bar - in hindsight yours looks like it provides much better protection.
Any feedback re: rhino pioneer? I only just installed mine, so have yet to test with a load on dirt.
Nick[SIZE=2][B]2012 GXL Prado 150 D4D[/B] with: BFG ATRs, OME coils and nitro shocks (2 1/2 inch lift), ARB colour-coded sahara bar, IPF 900XS, safari snorkel, rhino pioneer platform rack, REDARC dual battery system, headlight and bonnet protectors, side and rear awnings, hi-lift jack mounts, black duck canvas covers and more...[/SIZE]

I'm very happy with the deluxe bar offers a little extra protection and I'll be probably be adding ARB scrub rails and steps, so it will suit it well. I love the Prado and have done about 13,000 km since mid August, which isn't bad considering I'm 2.5 km from home to work. I'm very happy with the low profile of the pioneer platform and haven't considered taking it off since I bolted it on! I'm considering adding side rails for the next trip, might try and pry the Foxwing off my uncles disco too!

Today I picked up the Lightforce Genesis spotties I WON, had my suspension ordered for me and have made some enquiries about a custom cargo barrier to bolt on the back of v2 drawers.. Time to go done the shed fit the new electric brake backing plates to the Jayco and hopefully get these lights pumping. I also need to squeeze in an oil change this week.. Running out of time!150 with stuff bolted on!

Anyway, qot the Jayco brakes fixed last night, just didn't get as far as doing anything to the Prado, will see what happens the next few days. If not I think I need to spend a day after Easter, tidying up loose ends, such as lights, breathers and fix the dodgy scotchlock on the ignition feed and give it a good service.150 with stuff bolted on!

Yeah I always keep an eye on things, but I especially give it a good check over & some work before any big trip.
The bigger the trip the more time & $$$ I will spend on preventative maintenance.
Scotch locks Can be unreliable, but if they are used carefully, and I will tape them individually and as a bunch if that's the option I take. I prefer to solder whatever. Can if its likely permanent.
It will be good to see yours with the lift in.
