    • Well that sux, no e-locker GB!

      So I guess you have a kaymar rear bar coming, does a 33" even fit on the rear door (the weight of my 32"'s concerns me!)?

      • I have a rear bar coming but not the Kaymar, they don't make one to suit 33" tyres to fit to 150 prados.
        The weight of any tyre on the rear door concerns me over time.

        Cheers Derek

          • Derek, Mate they are sweet looking wheels and tyres. You will be able to throw lots of mud at Steve's 120 now!

            What brand rear bar did you end up going for?

            • Steve will still be king of mud LOL, i still need to see some. The bar is i can't recall but it looks better than Kaymar and will look sweet with what was shown and discribed to me. If Steve reads this he be able to tell you the brand.

              Cheers Derek

              • i wasn't going to spill the beans before derek did.

                a 33" can fit on the back door with the right off set. although the tyre may touch on top of the bumper.

                derek's getting the new design twin spare wheel carrier by Outback Accessories through his Local Opposite Lock dealer. (a blatant plug, but not as bad as derek's rig out the front on OL)

                the bumper will be colour coded, but the arms will remain black. it will blend in very nicely especially with two 33" tyres with those sik wheels hanging off the back. the Rear bar can accommodate 35"s if anyone is interested.

                i think this will finish off the back end very nicely. and after the drawers are in with the rear bar, the 150 will sit beautifully.

                              • Hi Derek,
                                Keen to hear about the rear bar, as i am also in the market. i have been looking at the kaymar, but have been hesitant with the pricing. but if there is one that holds a 33 and looks better than the kaymar i would be very interested. Do you know if it incorporates a reece hitch as well similar to the kaymar? also any indications on $$?
