    Have not had the chance to take mine offroad yet.
    Might get the chance in a couple of weeks time when I head north to visit my eldest son. I am sure he will want to see how it goes offroad.

      my order was confirmed in 10th March, and tsunami came the day after, so suffer a lot,
      ETA is 14th this month.
      I know the pain of the long wait as well. But it is certainly worth the loooooong wait.

          Bassett...looks good..Just a few questions for you.What is the rating on the towbar (2500 kgs or 3000 kgs and the ball weight on the plate).and cost fitted.It looks like you have been VERY busy getting it all together.
          I've just got my new toy and want to do a few things with Towbar and Bullbar being the first.
          After checking out yours I've been swayed to go with the ARB bar
          Cheers mate.

            G'day Chalkie,
            The towbar is rated at 3000kgs with a ball weight of 300kgs and cost me $580 fitted and wired with a 7 pin flat plug.
            My wife and I have just started a caravanning holiday and the SX tows the Jayco Destiny caravan with ease. The upgraded suspension has come into its own now that we are loaded up with fridge and gear in the back and the caravan behind. It has certainly been worth the effort.
            Look forward to seeing some pics of your build up. Where are you located?
            Regards
            Bassett

                Hey Bassett

                I have "all most" done the same. Well looks the same:
                ARB Deluxe bullbar (colour coded)
                IPF driving lights
                Hayman Reece towbar
                Safari Snorkel
                GME UHF
                and rhino roof rack flat tray.

                How much was the Tough Dog springs and shocks/struts if you don't mine me asking? i didn't think you would notice 40mm but it look great, can you notice a change in the ride? ARB said they can do two inch lift now? where did you get it done at?

                  G'day Reedy,
                  The Tough dog suspension kit (2 front struts, 2 coils, 2 rear coils and 2 rear shock absorbers, fitted including wheel alignment) cost me $1500, however this price was quoted to me six months before the actual supply and fit was done and because he had previously done a lot of work for both of my sons on their GU Patrol utes, he kept with the original quote which was very good of him. It was done by Coastal 4X4 & Outdoor (he has recently become an ARB dealer) in Hervey Bay Qld. It has made the ride a bit stiff when the vehicle is empty but comes into it's own when the vehicle is loaded with gear and the caravan (1600kg) is attached as this is why I had the suspension changed.
                  I have also had a GME TX3540 UHF installed along with a Polaris in-dash GPS fitted a couple of weeks ago.
                  I am currently sitting in the caravan in a little caravan park (Barambah Bush Caravan Park) outside Murgon Qld "living the dream".
                  Regards

                      I will try to take some photos tomorrow and post them up for you. Great to see another Shorty on PradoPoint.

                        Basset, Thank you very much. I have not seen the inside of a shorty yet. Only have the brochure. So am doing my build through looking here at all the good things people have done.

                          G'day SOL,

                          Here are some photos of the interior of my SX shorty. And yes, that is an accelerator pedal on the left hand side of the brake pedal. I have had it modified for me to drive as my right leg & foot do not work very well after a rather nasty motorcycle accident 6 years ago. There is a right foot accelerator pedal as well however it is folded up out of the way when I drive and can be folded down and the left one folded up when "normal drivers" need to drive.


                          The In-Dash Polaris GPS/Radio etc, the GME TX3540 UHF handpiece, the Tekonsha electric brake controller and the Toyota TPMS.






                          The two 12v outlets in the back.

                          Hope this helps.

                          Regards
                          Bassett

                              Bassett, Would be okay with asking you a whole bunch of random questions about your vehicle please? Would you prefer for me to email you?

                              Cheers
