Bought myself a new toy last Wednesday a current shape Hilux, Diesel, dual cab with 26 xxx km's picked it up Friday with just enough time to fit my Baja light bar, UHF and fish oil the chassis before I headed off for Fraser Island for the long weekend.
Plenty of things to do to it yet but here's some pics of it at the moment.

Booked in for a full body Protection back with Master tint. Paint and interior protection, electronic rust protection and tinted windows hopefully help keep it looking its best for a few years to come. Also going to make my way to ARB to acquire some under body protection and a second battery tray. The stock bash plates copped a beating from the sand so before I head off to Landcruiser park for Mud bulls I'll get something a lil bit more hardy to take any beatings

Spent the last four days out at Landcruiser Mountain Park for MUD, BULLS AND MUSIC did a few tracks while I was out there before we hit the drink to hard
. Though ground clearance was the biggest issue I was well surprised what I could point it at and drive on up at a nice slow easy pace being sure not to dent sills or bust c.v's. I'm hanging to get a good lift and a decent set of tyre's after feeling what it could do as a stocka.

Looks good mate. Don't think they'll be vulnerable off road?

Yep I reckon there going to get nailed so I'm saving like crazy for my 3" lift and 32's to get it off the ground a little, I'm also hoping the towbar takes the brute of any harsh departures

Haha yeah sure! NOT!
I also have a 20" baja in the gap of my bullbar and HID upgrade's on my headlights I can just about see through walls I think with a pair of those new ARB intensity lights I should be good

Its not actually on the roof it on the back board of the tray I made up some alloy brackets but I'm not really happy with them so i have ordered some of these mounts from monster lights.

I did the fold down rear seat cut on the weekend works a treat, perfect little hiding spot for all those extra little goodies.

Question,
Who did you buy the Ballistic Jester wheels through?
Seems to be rather difficult getting them in South Australia.
