Very nice set-up.
Where did you run wiring for the lightforces ?

I ran it down the back door then through a little gap, to along the chassis rails to the engine bay, so i didn't have to pull apart all the panels, i can throw up some pics if you want?

Cheers Tim

Thanks for that Tim. I think I can follow what you did, just got to get back to our prado to see if my thoughts are right.

Pictures would be great, if possible.

Nice work octane. Think you got the photos back to front - you're supposed to have the stock 'clean' photo THEN the modified 'dirty' photo!!

Good to see you've let it loose in standard trim!

No worries,


This is where it goes down the back door (i tried to squeeze it under the black covering in the roof gutters but because its insulated figure 8 cable it wouldnt fit so i had to tape it ontop )



This is the little gap i was talking about its kinda difficult squeezing it in there without 2 people.




Running across chassis rails (will need a fair few cableties for this)



Running up flap to engine bay just before front wheel



Below photo is running it past the brake booster (i would advise to use some split tubing for this as the break booster can get quite hot)

Cheers Tim

Looking at either Monsterrides rekon kit or superior profender 4" kit in the not to distant future, anybody have any experience with these kits?

[derek11 Advanced Member Find all posts View Profile Close derek11]

my mate in WA with a Hilux has the monsterrides rekon 4" lift suspension and he is more than happy with it

[Octane94 Member Find all posts View Profile Close Octane94]

thanks for that derek although im leaning towards superior as monsterrides is a little bit on the expensive side..

I got sick of the glare and didn't really like the white aerial so i heatshrunk it...
