Very awesome thread (I've now read it end to end twice lol). 2018 460 with mild lift, E rated 265/70/70 BFG's, sliders and ARB Skids. Just did a drain/fill/filter at 65k miles. I'm the second owner, but got it at 19,000 miles. Fluid was dark, still sort of translucent, almost had a red-purple...

Post 1148 for the win. That got it to boot without hanging!

Having the same issue. It only will boot in safe mode on XP. any time I start windows normally, it crashes and says aborted. I followed the python instructions a page back to make that vbox install error go away.

r2m - very cool! I had not run across your post in my search. Very nice build! However, it looks like your gamiviti rack is a steeper angle than my approach? That being said, we may be looking at different curved sections of the same roof. Happy to share mine with you if you wanted to see how...

Cut....drill holes Install using 6 sets of 3 m5x12mm and t slot nuts. the 95% finished product. Weatherstrip/Edging for bottom is on it's way, and I'm 3d printing end caps for the 2020 strut for a nice finished look. If i make a second iteration of the fairing, I'd make it slightly...

Repeat 6 more times..... Obtain 20mmx100 5 section aluminum "2020" series extrusion. This is 1200mm long (just under 48"). Attached using 2020 m5 x 12mm hardware and t nuts. Grab a mate, attempt cardboard template.... Test fit.... Make a few more tweaks.... and commit. This iteration...

Hello, Lurked for a while and finally have something to contribute. I have always liked the look of the low profile pioneer/backbone combo on the 460 but haven't been thrilled with all the wind noise it created. I researched fairing solutions and read that the factory rhino rack fairing is...

Cut....drill holes Install using 6 sets of 3 m5x12mm and t slot nuts. aaaand the 95% finished product. A few things needed still - weatherseal/edging the bottom of the fairing and 3d printing a strut end cap to finsih off the 20x100 struts nicely. Might make a second iteration out of...

Well - I successfully made a fairing for my Pioneer/GX setup following your lead. It works surprisingly well. Like you mention, probably 80% reduction in wind noise. I utilized "2020" aluminum extrusion strut materials, and only fabricated a few parts. Off the shelf rhino rack M8 channel...

HUGE, HUGE thanks for putting this together. I've got the same rack on my GX460/Prado 150 and have been converging on a similar fairing solution. I'm glad I did not reinvent the wheel! I do have 1 question (ok 2...), What angle did you bend the aluminum brackets to? 45 degrees? I measured a...
