Robert, That tape around the aerial spring to assist in reducing the swing is a give away, and a reminder i was meant to do the same.........seems even the FJ's population is growing here too, they know there on a good platform to start with I reckon

Your Grande looks pretty good!
My first PP sticker sighting!
3 days to go, my position has been made redundant (only been working for the same company for 35 years...), so will not see me going this way from next week.

Yes dont forget, I used two layers. First was a tightly wound electrical tape about two -three twists over the entire spring. Then I put a sheetlh of heat sink tube ( get it from jaycar) and heat it , as it tightens it all up and no tape unravels. Just the right amount of give in the aerial then and stops nearly all the wobble but still allows for give.

Spotted a PP on a white 120 outside the Energex Building in Newstead at about 1:30pm. It had a small PP sticker in the bottom left of the rear screen and the number plate ended in M*S

Spotted this nice looking Prado in the Bunnings carpark in Busselton this morning. I left a short note under your windscreen to let you know you were spotted.
I dont recognise many WA Pradopointers vehicles anymore. I cant keep up with all the names on here, and I dont get on the forum as much these days.
But its a nice looking rig mate.

There was another nice 120 parked sort of diagonally from you, were they with you?
Mind you there are some quite nice Prados in Busselton, the local dealer has done well, and the ARB shop.
And even more Prados in town now during school holidaysCheers
