Good to see you finally got to pick it up @Darren Bundy. I bet the wait has been worth it ... Nick was great with the sale and handover with ours as well. Had a look through yours at the show and like the interior colour selections and the stereo addition (Now a mod for ours).
Enjoy your trip and don't forget to post pics and trip reports.
Getting our annex walls fitted next week and off on our shakedown trip next weekend on a three day weekend stay at Willowbrook Farm in Gingin next weekend to try ours out.
Cheers,
David

How good does that set up look!!!! Awesome. looks like the bum of the Prado is sitting down a little though. Do you think it needs airbags or a WDH?
Thanks @dagree, I may need to look at the shakedown trip next week. A few mods most needed include box on drawbar for webber, gen, ect.
@17triton When I fitted the 50mm bilsteins/Lovells I took a punt and left bags out but they will definitely be fitted this week!
Cheers @Arapiles Campers

Toolbox bottle mods done and gas plumbed up.
Airbags fitted to Prado.
Quit my job, in the process of packing up house this week and spending 6-8 weeks driving around the top back to east coast.

Hi @Darren Bundy ,
Just curious on the gas bottle there... how did you support the weight of the bottle with the toolbox attachment?
Thanks
BJ

That reminds me @Darren Bundy . Did you get the wind up wheel holder fitted?
Would like to see the finished product if you did.
OH and don't forget.... As said before we want plenty of pics of your trip
I'm sure the kids will love the trip and so will Mum & Dad.
Hi BJ,
Had some 2.5mm checker rolled to suit bottle diameter. A base cut to suit with drain holes and welded to box ends.
The guy that did the ally welding assures me that this was more than strong enough to support this.
I will keep an eye on welds for cracks/fatigue during the trip and let you know if I have any issues.
I like it...... I already have the materials to make a swing down spare holder but might wait until I but the box on the a-frame and weigh the ball weight with the wheel hanging off the bar and with it tied up underneath before I make a decision as to which way to go.
Once again looks great
