    Have been a bit quiet on the build front of late. I have been trying to figure out how to fit my fridge slide. So I made up some 'Keys' to fit into the tracks in the boot. Then fixed some bolts and cut some slots in a piece of ply. This is the prototype and there is some tweeking needed to get it perfect. My idea was to be able to place the ply and slide in the back and then slide the keys up the track and tighten them to hold it all in place. Works pretty well too..! So all I have to do is carpet it and it will look the part.

        Great setup mate, still regret getting the 20" slotted in under my rhino rack! 40" would have been great!

            Latest bit to be bolted on is my New Warn XP9.5 winch and synthetic rope. Sits neatly under the bar and has a remote too...!




            shouldn't have been in the shop for so long tho, happened to find a set of rims that i now must have, this thing is getting out of control.

            All I need to do is sell my standard 18 inch ones...

              Coming along very nicely mate, it never ends hey

              Those rims I really like. A member on here has them on his white Prado with 285's looks great. I am interested to see what they look like on a silver prado now too! Do you mind me asking what they're asking per rim? Are you going 17's?

                It's getting worse than the boat. Always something else to get.. Haha
                They quoted $365 per rim although may be a bit of room to move on that. Going down to 275/70R17 so I can get more rubber under there.

                  Picked up a set of five FJ Cruiser wheels fitted them last night, love the look of these on the Kaka...! Gives it a wider stance too...

                          Just added the Factor55 winch hook and protective sleeve for the winch rope, was not an easy addition to put on. I had to take all the rope off and thread it on from the tail end.[IMG][/IMG]

                            Hey Orrsom,
                            fantastic build mate. Great to see another Silver Prado on the Coast. I just wanted to ask you a quick question about what size your Pioneer Platform is? Or if you have the part number of it?

                            Cheers Jez

                              Cheers Mate, it's slowly coming along. The platform is 1236mm x 1928mm I think the part number is Part# 42102B.

                                Thanks Mate, that's the length I was looking at. Not a big fan of attaching it to the existing rails either so i'll grab a set of the Heavy Duty feet aswell.
                                Cheers
