Hi all,

Any Ideas on how I can obtain and get fitted an extra tank (similar to GXL) for my TD Sahara LC200?

Now I know that Toyota dont offer one for loading reasons...but I dont have much to load in the back...I need the range rather than the total weight consideration.

Would be grreat if anyone of you have sorted this one out...

Many thanks

Go and see ARB, TJM or Opposite Lock they will tell you.

It means removing the spare wheel from under the car. We are putting a 180lt Long Ranger tank into a GXL

After looking hard at all the different brands, materials and designs we have just sorted all the additional gear for our new GXL LC200 TD from ARB. They offered the best deal and design of front bar. (Im a mechanical fitter)

Fitted prices are:

Deluxe colour coded steel front bull bar with fog light $2735 100kgs

Warn Winch 9500kg $2148 25kgs

IPF spots $594

Long Ranger fuel Tank 180ltr $1917 200kgs

Six STT Coopers $2418

ARB steel roofrack $1000 30kgs

Water bladder 75lt $250 75kgs

TX3440 UHF + Aerial $917

Thumper battery $1144 20kgs

Safari snorkel $680

Kaymar rear twin wheel carriers $3200 50kgs

---------------------------------------------

Off Road Systems, Sydney:

Alluminium Double long drawers + two drawer fridge pack $4565 140kgs

Grand total $20,568 Totalkgs 640kgs approx guesses of weights

ARB are looking into a suspention pack to upgrade the carrying capacity with Toyota and the Transport Departments do to the fact that the 200 can only carry 600kgs?

Weight is a big issue when that total dosn't include recovery camping gear and food and of course Amber fluids??

We are off out accross the Simpson again, then the Gunbarrel Highway, Canning stock route and back along the Tanami track and Plenty Highway. Cant wait.

Greetings all.

I have a 40 litre Engel fridge. With my Hilux, I had it mounted on an Engel slider which was bolted to the tray - no problems. However, with the 200 and the third row of seats, which I would use only rarely, bolting the slider to the floor would cause problems with using the third row (or at least one of the third row seats). I don't want to install a full drawer system and I'd prefer not to strap the fridge down.

Has anyone solved this one?

Sorry can't help you with that - However it is a bit poor that their is only one power supply on the front dash - Will have to get one installed at the rear for things like fridges etc.

Yes, I was a bit unhappy about being charged $150 for a rear power outlet for a so-called off-road vehicle when my VW Golf pavement machine has one as standard.

We are spending $20,000 on all the extras for our new Merlot GXL TTD LC200 eg ARB Merlot Deluxe bull bar, IPF spot lights, ORS double ally drawers + fridge slide (80l Waeko), Long Ranger 180lt fuel tank, ARB roof rack, KAYMAR twin rear wheel carriers, six STT Coopers, and a UHF two way, oh and a thumper rear battery pack.

Then off on the gunbarrel, Canning stock route back along the Tanami track. Plenty of paint protection.
