No, it's not as exotic as it sounds. In my quest to get back into trail exploration with our move back west, I'm now considering a GX470 as a build platform. I see several folks have have done just that here, Mud and the 120 Forum. My only concern is sourcing items for a Prado that aren't normally stocked here. Just curious if ARB is open to (or maybe even stocks) bullbars, snorkels and skid plates for Prados in the US intended for the GX.
I'd really like an ARB bullbar but I like the Ironman Commercial bar as well. How readily available are these here in the States? Just for funzies, here is the route I would take if I opt for a GX over an LX/100 Series:
Bullbar
OME coils/shocks up front, MetalTech coil conversion rear with OME springs/shocks from a 4Runner
Snorkel
Full skid plates
Sliders
275/70-17's
ARB Air Locker (rear)
My only concern is sourcing or waiting for parts. I know that back in the day, ARB wouldn't have an issue ordering Prado parts but their friendliness seems to have left with their move to Renton. If they would order these items, what is the typical wait time?
Thanks!
