  • Spilsy's 2019 GXL

    Guess Who's Back..?!?!!??

    So, I have sold the Ranger and am just waiting for a delivery date for a 2019 Graphite GXL.
    Its coming delivered with an ARB Summit Bar and Hayman Reese Towbar. (Why these do not yet come standard with a tow bar is baffling...)

    Photos will obviously follow once I take delivery!

    A couple of early additions will be 3D floor mats, Light Bar, ARB Compressor and UHF Radio. Following these will be a dual battery system of some description for the fridge. And then, with the little stuff done it will be time for suspension and some BFGs.

    Keen for some early advice on light bar choices and dual battery setups (The Ranger had a Redarc BCDC in it).

    So, the Prado showed up just before Easter, unfortunately, without its Bull bar and Tow bar...Lease company mix up it seems.
    The first change was to remove the stark white number plates and replace them with Slimline black ones.

    I'm booked in to get the bull bar and tow bar next week. Photos will follow I promise!

    I think I've chosen a Light Bar - https://www.stedi.com.au/st3301-24-5...light-bar.html - your thoughts please!

      Welcome back Spilsy.

      You will have fun fitting all the new bits. The light bar looks alright and Stedi do make some good gear.

        Bull bar and tow bar fitted on Friday.
        The tow ball is too low for my trailer, but the nut's been tightened to way more uggah duggahs than I can loosen...

          Cheers!

          I may have changed my mind back to Stedi's Type X or Type X Pro lights..... They're just so much more expensive.

            Grabbed the 3/4 inch socket wrench at work and managed to get the nut free.
            It had been tightened so far that the spring washer curled up a massive burr on the nut!

              Sounds very painful. Good thing you had a big enough tool.

                  "Test fit" of the new light bar. Just need to work out how I'm going to wire it in...

                    Looks nice. I’m keen to hear how you go wiring it up too and if you have to use the official Toyota wiring harness mentioned on other posts in this forum.
