    butch_75 2011GXL D4D bluestorm buildup

    Hi all this is a new buildup after the old 2007GXL go written off



    When purchased only additions were the bonnet / light protectors and mats and factory tint.

    These shots are on the morning of the upgrade at Western 4x4 , I have known Vince and the gang for a while now as they did the work on the previous Prado.

    Hi,
    Nice set of upcoming mods. The pics you posted are set to private; so it makes it a little harder to see
    Have fun with the new beast.

          Love the Blue storm there Butch. I freaked when Toyota told me there was going to be an 8 month wait on it so instead went silver. Keep up the good work on the Prado, love getting ideas from seeing what everyone else has done.

          Cheers,

          Chris.

            I was fortunate, this one was available on the lot where I bought it. It was around the time of the Japan floods etc this year, thought I wouldn't wait as they started shutting plants down over there. I have completed the dual battery system and put an engel plug to the rear so can keep the fridge cold of beers whilst out on the road.

                Yeh I have done a little whilst on holiday last week up at Lake Eildon, VIC. Just some little tracks so I could see what she's like in ruts and water crossing etc. I have some pics on some friends cameras, I am waiting to get a copy, I will post when I have.

                The build up is coming along nicely. Have recently put in the dual battery system and ran an engel plug to the rear prior to our trip. Will post some pics shortly.

                  Buildup better late than never

                  Hi guys,

                  Sorry it has been such a long time since my last post. I have just started to get around to do a few more things to the prado.

                  I have completed the following

                  Dual Battery system with a projecta 150 module, and an allrounder battery



                  I also added a engel plug run from the back to the projecta 150 to keep things cold during the hotter months.
