you won't contract asbestos from a visit , my mother was basically raised in witnoom and has had cancer issues and my brother brain cancer and my grandfather a raft of health issues but passing by , especially today isn't going to do anything but then again i'm not a doctor

not worth paying a fabricator cos i would suggest it would be alot more expensive than getting the uneek ones . i looked into it and i'll wait to see if chief release the support seperately or just buy the uneek one and get a fab to make up arms for the pioneer
I sent of an email over the weekend to a few fabricators in Perth with the same photos above. One of them replied saying $350 +gst. I will wait for a couple more but its looking ok.

Need to get my arse down there for the measurements etc.

Picked up the Stedi Type X 7in driving lights to replace the 4wdSuperCenter lightbar. Hope its a world of difference.

Yep, that's a good price. Let me know how it goes as worth while to give greater confidence with the roof rack.

Had a look at a tyre carrier today fabricated locally. This guy is also willing to work on the roof rack bracket if time allows. Since he is a uni student, time maybe limited.

This is the tyre carrier I was looking at, do you think it will affect the departure angle? It sits about 3in below the tow hitch with a diagonal cut - this design is as such so it act as a stopper when opened.

His previous version does not suffer this problem and is a straighter cut though he has none avail.

Previous version on the LandCruiser attached.
