  • One Stop Shop Alternatives

    Just purchased a 2016 GXL - replaced our 2000GXL. Came with towbar & dual battery. Need to add bullbar, snorkel & recovery point and presumably upgrade suspension including airbags.
    Pulling a Kimberley Kamper - approx 1.3T and 180Kg on the ball. Not much on the roof - rods and maxtrax. Just wife and me so not a ridiculous amount of stuff in the back.

    I would prefer a one stop shop to add the above accessories. I have been to ARB and TJM in Melbourne.
    Are there other reputable suppliers in Melb that you think I should consider? I would like at least one more.
    Snorkel and bullbar are the easy bit. Upgrading suspension to suit our intended use without going overboard is the bit I find more difficult. i have spent quite some time reading through posts on the subject and it can be pretty overwhelming.
    Unfortunately we won't be around for the October Melb shows and I can't really wait till Feb/Mar. There is a show in Bendigo late Nov but I'm concerned if I wait for that I might not get things installed before xmas. Any thoughts on that?
    Thanks in advance for your help. Frank.

    Fwiw i spoke to Ironman and Onelock but figured they are in a slightly different market to arb & tjm. I have placed an order with tjm.

      Opposite lock are worth a look
      they make and also stock alot of very good gear

      TJM and ARB are also good, best bet is talk to people in your area for who has good installers a lot of these stores unfortunately lack a lot in this department

      a good example of this would be ARBs head office
