I have a pretty good set up for road touring towing our van and some bacis off roading. Over time I have done the following to :
2007, 120 Series Toyota Prado Turbo Diesel .
Uneek 4x4 Steel Bar
Hard Korr Spot & Spread LED lights
Hard Korr light-bar (wired in to high beams but have independent on/off switches)
12000lb WARN Winch
Extra Transmission Cooler
Lock Up Torque Converter
Projecta DCDC charger (with solar power input)
Snorkel (Ironman 4x4)
Diesel prefilter
2” lift, heavy duty springs (Pedders Frankston)
REDAC is Brake controller
Uniden UHF
Roof Console (Department of the interior)
Engine Data Scan (4wd Supacentre)
Polaris GPS / Reverse Camera
Safety Dave Vehicle and Caravan Camera (independent to Polaris reverse camera)
Extending Tow Mirrors
Rhino-rack roof rack (MAXTRAX and shovel brackets)
Foxwing Awning
Cargo barrier
Custom Roof storage boxes (MOXHAM engineering)
High up indicator and brake lights (attached to storage boxes)
Reverse / camp lights (three way switch OFF, ON or ON activated by reverse)
Rear draws (4wd Supacentre)
Homemade fridge cage / shelf (to protect fridge and for Travel Mate 12v oven)
Rear Engel / Ciggi socket
Rear Voltmeter dual USB point.
I have a compressor and deflator, long handled shovel, maxtrax and recovery gear.
What else if anything would I need to change / add to attempt the Simpson Dessert? I’ve been told a second sparewheel is a must. Keen to hear what you have to say. Not sure I want the weight of a second wheel on the roof.
The trip will be done in our Prado and our tent.
Cheers
