Very similar boat to ours (Stacer Seamaster 525). Have contemplated selling it due to lack of use but the "Boss" keeps talking me out of it by reminding me the fine weather is coming upon us :)

As for a winch I wasn't going to put one on the prado as had them on the last 2 4X4's I had and only used twice..... Once to pull a 2WD up a hill on a gravel road and the second time to drag the daughters car up our drive when it blew a piston, but my darling Minister for Finance bought this one as a xmas present coz she had no idea what else to get ;)

One thing I did learn while researching the ESC's is that most insurance companies will/may give a 10% discount on your policy...
If you have ESC and haven't told your insurer I'd be suggesting to give them a call and give it a try.... I will be as soon as it's fitted :)

Same as when I fitted the WDH for the previous van @skippy .... Noticed a difference and felt more confident.

From what people have replied on here and talks I've had with others I'm 100% certain it'll be the same with the ESC!!

Don't forget I'm off today but back in on Monday I'll check online at the specs to see if it is prewire which it may be as everything has pre wire now

How'd the concert go @rodney ;)

All's good... Spoke to Rob this afternoon and booked in for measuring etc in 3 weeks (With the WA meet next weekend and damn work getting in the way would have been earlier!!)
Tentatively booked in 2 weeks after that for fitting.

Hmmmm... prewired? Does that mean a discount? Gotta try ;)
