Windbooster fitted purchased from 4wdsupplies - well worth the $280! For a cheap mod this little thing delivers some decent punch, no more scary moments when pulling out into traffic, much better when trying to get some quick engine pickup in the sand.

ARB winch bar and ARB roof cage/ rack ordered this morning - unfortunately a 3 week wait ex-Melb.

Hate waiting for new toys . . .

Cut and refitted the Toyota trayliner using a Jigsaw - not perfect but it'll do the job.
