Hey all,
Firstly I just want to say thanks to you all. Great forum here and the content really helped me decide to buy the Tuna over a variety of other options.
The car arrived yesterday after spending some time collecting accessories in Perth before final delivery into the sunny Pilbara. So far very happy with it and looking forward to many future adventures. Will add a few more things along the way but as it sits in the driveway right now it's pretty well ready to go.
The upgrades so far:
- Demo 2016 Crusade model Fortuna in Graphite
- TJM T13 outback steel bar (waited 3 weeks for an ARB Summit that never arrived so chose this instead). Looks fantastic by the way and should be considered
- Stedi 8.5" LED spotlights
- Milford cargo barrier
- OME lift kit
- Airbagman airbags in the rear (tow a 2T camper with 200+kg ball weight)
- Hayman Reece tow bar
- Weathershields and bonnet protectors
- BFG AT KO2 tyres
- Rubber Boot and floormat set
- GME 2 way radio
- Tow Pro Elite brake controller
- Upgraded rear cig lighter socket wiring and swapped the fitting to Anderson plug type
- Swapped the battery over to Optima red top gel type (I had a new one in my old car I swapped over).
Heading out for our first run towing on the Queens birthday long weekend when we head to Coral Bay for a few days. Will have the chance to do some good off-road and beach driving while there. Looking forward to using it for what it's designed for.
Have fun people!
