So you sold the 60?

The day I bought it. Way too cheap but I was able to build it out for the new owner.

Be thankful you’re not filling up in California, where it costs almost $50 to fill a Prius!

The extended tongue is what I was missing. Very nice!

Agreed. I'm 4 days in on a 2 week trip. Really need to do something about the limited range though.

I’ve never equipped any of my Land Cruisers with a drawer system. I have always needed the third rows in the 100 with kids and travel but they are grown now.

I made a call to @Ozark cruiser and a set of Dobinsons drawers were inbound.

These things are super high quality and the price is great.

I also installed an Aussie attic tray

Did you order your attic shelf directly from Kaon or did you find a US vendor? I'm having difficulty finding a US based supplier of their products.

Direct

Thanks for the answer! I'm getting this shelf and their recovery points which look a little more soft shackle friendly than ARB's.
I've enjoyed this thread a lot. You're doing it right!!
Cheers!

Thank you. I like the way it drives the way it’s currently set up for sure.
