This is a buildup of my 2019 Prado 150 Kakadu, both for my own reference and to hopefully share my ideas with some of you fine folk, whom I have repeatedly leveraged over the years (I had a 2008 Prado 120 GXL for 11 years which I sold when I bought the new truck a few weeks ago, and I repeatedly found myself on these forums when looking for info and materials).
In particular, I haven't seen any references on these forums to many of the parts and ideas I have decided to install:
Some photos to come shortly with the bodgy UHF install for the first 4WD trip, and the troubles I've already encountered before I even started. I'll also undoubtedly end up rambling on endlessly about Anderson PowerPole connectors for 12V power, which will be used throughout (no cig lighter connections for me!).
There's also a long story to tell about every aspect of the build (what it's supposed to do and why I chose it over other options), which I'm happy to share for anybody else who is interested. Please let me know of any questions you have as I get my stuff together over the coming few weeks.
