amts,

Thanks for the photo's. I may have to go the custom route. I would still like to see some one with an ARB rack on the Prado.

amts,

Thanks for the links. It is giving me a good idea of what I want to do. I now need to see one of the ARB racks made for a roof top tent on a Prado.

amts,

You are the man!! I like the look and style of the ARB, but the function of the Front Runner. I will have to think on it a while.

Well after much searching and getting no where with several companies in the US, I ended up going with the African Outback Rack. It should be here next week so I will post up some pics if I can.

Nice. They don't look too bad. A bit like our Wind Cheetah but with rails all round.

I also like their racks for the OEM rails

amts,

The rail is an option. The one I orders comes with it. I will decide if I like it on or not when I install it. It also has a hatch for the sun roof. I am pretty stoked.

Rack looks great. I get this error message when I try and upload photos: "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached" or I would post up some pic's.

You need to upload your photos to some photo hosting website. Then post a link in your thread using the Img tags. Would love to see the photos.

Ben,

Thanks for the offer, but i currently have an Oasis 11 RTT that works great. I did make a sleeping platform for the inside of the GX that I like better. I will most likly sell the Oasis.
