Brisey,
Sliders look great. What sort of suspension upgrade and lift did you get? Just finished reading the horror stories about OME and now have concerns as my 120 is booked in get a suspension upgrade this week. It's not too late to change my mind though so would appreciate any reviews you have after the first few days.Comment

Only went for a 2" lift rated to 150kg I think as I still wanted a comfy ride for daily use, I love it so far very little difference in fact probably better than before as the stock shockers were on their way out. Easter will be their first test, we are going to the Vic high country out of Mansfield.Originally posted by Retreads View Post

So I had a few free days and wanted to add a fridge slide on the rear. On previous Utes I never had a housing or compartment so every time you pulled out the fridge, everything would fall in behind it. So decided to make this. Could have done the whole thing out of 15mm ply and save a bit of money but that would have made it heavy. Instead made the base of 15mm and the structure out of aluminum then the top and sides out of 7mm ply. It's all very light until you add the fridge slide which is pretty heavy by itself. Worked out pretty cheap compared to something premade Plus getting the satisfaction of knowing I did it all myself
It takes up a heap of room in the back but thats ok as we tow a camper trailer and most things except for food goes in there2008 Prado 120 GXL V6 auto. Stock...but slowly building it upComment

Had a 3 inch Redback exhaust fitted, What a massive difference both in sound and performance.
Quality bit of gear.

Replaced the headlight globes as both had simultaneously blown low beam. They were Narva plus 40 blue. Gave the beasty a wash and removed the M/Ts and replaced them with my BFG A/Ts.Dave

With sound is it really noticeable as I don't want something noisy and causes a drone on the highway at speed. Any feedback you have?Comment
-
No drone at all, sounds great nice note and nice turbo spool up noise. The beauty of the redback system if you want to quieten it down you can just bolt in a muffler. No need though.Comment

Just filled up today and been recording fuel economy since last fill up.
Got this much out of it and decided to fill up now because fuel prices will go back up tomorrow.

Just did a oil change for first time at home today and installed the long awaited fumoto oil valve. Now to see how things go with it. So far it doesn't look like it sticks out from the bash plate to that's good at least.[B]CANYONEROOOOO *whipping in the distance*

Used the winch to remove a stump from the back yard. Car was out the front with plenty of rope through the side gate. Neighbours were curious.Dave

^^Neighbours have probably watched 'YouTube Fails' and were having visions of your stump ending up in their lounge room
