Not sure what to get mine I have a few gift cards for ARB

I'm thinking either

* 2 in lift
* Rear Step Bar
* Awning
* or Locker ?? Not to keen on the locker though

What you fellas think


Cheers

I'd go the lift. This would help protect your rear (lesss need for rear bar) and give you more choice in lines (less need for locker). If you have standard suspension at the moment, most lifts will be better quality than OEM and give you a more comfortable ride. If you've got enough gift card to get a locker you could possibly get the lift and the awning.

James,

Definitely recommend the suspension lift. Probably the most important mod after tyres.

4wd Action did an article a while back on Tyres Vs Lift Vs Lockers and ranked them 1-3 as written. Worth a read.

Cheers,

G'day All,

Been delayed getting the pics up with the move and all but got "The Other Woman" something a bit special this year (click on the pics for the full image):

Replaced the tub with a Genuine Toyota / Triple M Trays Heavy Duty Steel Tray (thanks McSummway), got it sandblasted and powder coated white, custom made lockable removable aluminum cage with gas struts, custom checker plate tool boxes and a canvas canopy.

Very happy with it!

Cheers,
