GMF4x4 LC300 front bumper

RRP: From $4400

GMF4x4 has released its Gen6 front bumper for the LandCruiser 300 Series providing added protection with a fully integrated look.

Features include high-lift jack points, rated recovery points, a 3mm aluminium bash plate, 3D steel profiled light surrounds, 4-inch blacked out LED fog lights and underwing plates to protect the intercoolers mounted under the headlights.

The bar is finished in a hard-wearing black powder coat with dark grey powder coat contrast at the centre and on the light surrounds, giving a fresh new look.
Available with or without the top hoop and lightbar, GMF4x4 bars are made to work with factory electronics including the tech pack and parking sensors. The Gen6 bar for LC300 is designed and manufactured in Bathurst, NSW.

Stratus fire pit oven

RRP: $549

Ever wanted to cook up some pizzas while you’re out bush? The newest gear release from Stratus Outdoors is a game changer in your camp kitchen. A first of its kind, this patented design incorporates a sturdy fire pit, with a three-shelf oven below, and a grill plate above to char-grill your steaks.

Cleverly designed with a combination of steel and aluminium in all the right places, the result is a simple 12kg flat-pack design that’s built to warm your knees and cook your damper for many seasons to come.

This fire pit will no doubt get plenty of use as off-the-ground, self-contained fire pits are becoming a must for National Park camping. The fire pit is supplied with a heavy duty rPET waxed canvas carry bag and is covered by a three-year warranty. It’s also 100 per cent end-of-life recyclable.

Custom Offroad accessories protection plates

RRP: From $109-$1119

Underbody protection is essential for any 4x4 heading off road and these protection plates from Custom Offroad Accessories offer a complete package.

Many similar products will only protect the front, sump and transmission, but don’t go back as far as the transfer case. Custom Offroad Accessories has designed a 4mm crossmember to help stiffen the front-end and add protection for the radiator, AND also under the transfer case. The Twin Deluxe transmission plates protect the DPF and the fuel filter for maximum protection.

Australian made using 3-4mm stainless steel, the protection plates are available to suit a wide range of popular 4x4 vehicles. This kit is designed for MY22+ Ford Ranger V6 diesel models. The plates are tested to work with ARB bull bars and recovery points, Ironman Raid and Offroad Animal bars, and will even fit with the factory bumper.

Tuff Terrain Rock Hard awning

RRP: $429.99

The Tuff Terrain Rock Hard awning comes in a 2 x 2.5m and a 2.5 x 2.5m sizes, providing excellent shade coverage and protection from the elements. With universal mounting brackets, this awning is made for quick and easy installation and use.

With a self-retracting design there’s no need to manually roll up your awning, meaning less time fussing with your gear; the awning easily retracts back in to its aluminium hard case where it is protected from the elements. The Tuff Terrain Rock Hard awning is covered by a two-year warranty.

Outlink Starlink mounts

RRP: $140

Starlink has become an essential tool for maintaining communications when travelling in remote locations where normal phone service isn’t available. Carrying your Starlink system can pose a problem but Outcamp has a range of mounts to make it easier.

The Outcamp Mini Mount securely mounts the dish to the roof rack using three points of contact. The centre bracket is bolted into the T-Slot roof rack using included stainless bolts and nylon nuts. The dish can then be clipped onto the mount using the original mounting system.

The two support brackets are slid up against the ends of the dish to prevent it from unclipping and to minimise flex and vibrations on rough roads. The system allows for quick removal when required by loosening the end mounts and sliding away from the dish, then unclip the main centre mount and lift it off. A removal tool is included in the kit.

The UV-resistant Australian-made Outcamp mount sits 50mm high when fitted to the roof rack while 450mm of space is required on the roof rack.

AFN VW Amarok bull bar

RRP: From $3450

AFN’s bull bar to suit the current-model Volkswagen Amarok is a full bumper replacement, winch compatible, steel bar featuring rated recovery points, Hi-Lift jacking points, LED fog/indicator light assemblies, and includes a 6mm aluminium underbody bash plate.

The bar is finished in a matt-black powder coat or it can be colour coded to suit your vehicle. Optional rounded aluminium inserts in the recovery points protect soft shackles from damage, and there are multiple mounting points for driving lights and antennas.

This is the same style of AFN bar we recently fitted to the 4X4 Australia Ford Everest and we love the look and usability of this top-quality product.

a46f1852/carbon offroad scout pro 20000lb truck winch jpg

Carbon Offroad Extreme Duty Scout 20,000lb truck winch

RRP: $1999

So you’ve just built that F450 Super Duty with the works or an Isuzu Expedition Truck that looks ready to take on the Dakar, but you realise that the capacity of your average 4x4 electric winch isn’t going to be able to drag it out of the muck when things go bad.

Carbon Offroad’s new 20,000lb Extreme Duty Scout Pro Winch has been designed for use on large, heavy vehicles like the Ford F450 Super Duty or Isuzu Expedition Truck.

With a massive 20,000lb of pulling capacity, the Carbon CW-XD20 is engineered to handle the most demanding tasks. It features a 600A sealed solenoid pack, 7hp motor, automatic brake on the motor bracket, and comes with an aluminium fairlead and 25-metres of 13mm synthetic line.

When you add in the lifetime mechanical warranty, five-year electrical warranty and five-year warranty against water ingress, you know that this is a winch that’s built to last.

Trig Point tray-mounted canopies

RRP: From $18,990 (1000mm)

We loved the chassis-mounted service body from Trig point on the 4X4 Australia Ranger project and more recently the team there has released its own ute trays made in Melbourne with equally top quality design and hardware. And Trig Point has just unveiled its tray mounted canopies which will be available in 1000mm, 1290mm and 1550mm lengths, with the latter two due out early next year.

Right now, the 1000mm version (pictured) is ready to go, and like the chassis-mounted canopies it features lightweight alloy and steel construction, central locking, slam shut rotary latches, walk-on roof with integrated roof rails, powder coat finish, LED interior lights, carpeted floor with integrated tracks, filtered vents and door warning buzzer.

Groundswell Wash ultimate offroad kit

RRP: $346

Tested in Australia’s toughest terrains including the Canning Stock Route, the Simpson Desert and in Cape York, the Groundswell Wash Ultimate Offroad Kit (pictured) has everything you need to keep your 4x4 in pristine condition.

ONYX Lights ION-L-9-G2

RRP: $1480 (pair inc. harness)

The ION-L-9-G2 is a high-performance 9-inch LED driving light designed for off-road and rugged-terrain use. Its standout feature is the combination of LED and Laser technology that is claimed to provide a robust beam pattern with focused, long-distance illumination up to 1400m, and wide-range coverage, making it a versatile solution for both distance and peripheral vision at night.

A dual-colour (clear/amber) daytime running light (DRL) adds a layer of safety and style. The ION-L-9-G2 has IP68 and IP69K ratings, indicating resistance to water, dust and pressure, which is essential for harsh outdoor conditions. A high-strength PC lens further boosts its resilience, while the light is backed by a three-year warranty.

CalOffroad upper control arms

RRP: From $790

When a 4x4 suspension lift kit is installed, it can displace the original suspension caster and camber specifications. This can result in the loss of caster, leading to vague steering and the introduction of positive camber, which contributes to uneven and accelerated tyre wear.

CalOffroad’s upper control arm technology, with fixed and adjustable options, provides an enhancement over OE equivalent bolt-on solutions for lifted 4x4s. The upper control arms not only correct the wheel alignment but enhance it to provide greater steering feedback and improved driver inputs for confidence in all possible driving situations.

They are designed to maximise tyre-to-arm clearance and increase chassis space clearances to ensure a hassle-free off-road adventure. Forged from heavy-duty STKM 11A carbon steel tubing, CalOffroad upper control arms are coated with a double-layer shield to protect against corrosion.

Low noise, maintenance-free original equipment style rubber bushes are built into the upper control arms, with wheel travel increased by complementary heavy-duty, high-angle, greaseable ball joints.

The CalOffroad upper control arm ball joint provides better articulation over the OE version, which works in unison with the upgraded suspension. The ball pins are constructed from SCM435 Molybdenum and Chromium alloy steel and have undergone heat treatment which improves wear resistance and extends product life. This coupled with being a greaseable, serviceable unit, ensures a long-lasting quality product that will stand the test of time.

While CalOffroad’s upper control arm bush kits ensure peak vehicle stability, braking efficiency, and steering precision by utilising advanced composition bushings for exceptional elasticity, memory, and unparalleled durability, offering OE equivalent NVH, and comfort characteristics. With three decades of experience, CalOffroad stands at the forefront of 4x4 suspension systems, offering the ultimate in quality and performance.

Razed Products spare tyre tray

RRP: $579

The Razed Products Spare Tyre Tray is multi-functional design providing a raft of options for storing gear on your spare tyre which would otherwise be wasted space.

Lightweight but extremely strong, the Tyre Tray is an ideal solution for storing Gas Bottles (additional mount required), fire wood, chainsaws, shovels, axes etc., or even a set of Maxtrax Lite Recovery Boards for quick, convenient access with a set of optional mounting pins).

Fitment is super easy using the included Torkstrap HD; simply attach the Torkstrap to the mounting points, align it to your tyre and pull tight. The built in Power-Band Spring will keep constant force around the tyre to keep the tray safe and secure. The Spare Tyre Tray is Australian made and will fit tyres from 31-inch to 35-inch in diameter.

NSV integrated air compressor for LC70

RRP: $1177

NSV’s under seat air compressor system is a fully automatic set up for deflating and inflating the tyres on your LandCruiser 70 Series. The kit mounts the compressor under the passenger seat with the air outlet exiting though the mount.

The digital pressure gauge (DPG) fits in a custom panel on the dash from where you can set desired air pressure, and the system will automatically inflate or deflate to that selected pressure. The kit includes the single compressor unit, driver’s side panel with map light, passenger’s side control panel with digital pressure gauge, mounting bracket kit, wiring harness, air hose and storage bag.

The kit suits all current LandCruiser 70 Series models, is claimed to be built to OEM standard, and is covered by a three-year/100,000km warranty.

Off Track Concepts mudguards for LC70

RRP: $449 (includes postage anywhere in Australia)

You might remember Off Track Concepts as the clever guys behind the VDJ powered 80 Series that graced the cover of our May 2024 issue, for which they also fabbed up the neat rear drawers and storage system.

Another neat new product from OTC are these mudguard extensions for 70 Series LandCruisers running oversize tyres. Made from powder coated aluminium they are designed to provide more tyre clearance and eliminate tyre scrubbing.

Tested on a 79 with portals and up to 37-inch tyres, they require a bit of trimming on the lower inner guard, but they bolt right into the existing mounting holes.

Redarc BCDC Alpha charger

RRP: $799 (25A); $899 (50A)

The team at Redarc has released a new DC-DC charger for dual-battery systems that not only maintains the auxiliary battery but the main starter battery as well.

The BCDC Alpha monitors and charges both batteries and maintains their charge via the vehicle’s alternator and/or solar power input, so even when you are parked up in camp, both batteries can be kept charged by your solar system. If your starting battery somehow goes flat, you can start your vehicle using the auxiliary battery at the push of a button on your device via the Redvision app.

Available in either 25A or 50A outputs, and compatible with common automotive batteries including heated and standard lithium (LiFePO4), the Redarc BCDC Alpha is Australian made and tested with IP67/69K dust and moisture protection to ensure it’s a reliable device for any 4x4 application.

The unit is available with a fixed or sliding top, and each drawer supports up to 150kg – the sliding top can handle up to 100kg of dynamic load.

When fully extended, a unique stopping mechanism prevents unwanted movement and requires a firm knock to disengage. The system is lined with 8mm-thick commercial-grade marine carpet, and the side wings are top-accessible for enhanced storage flexibility. The drawers also feature lockable slam latches, which include an easy pull-push operation.

The high-performance ceramic brake pads are specifically formulated to enhance stopping power under extreme conditions. The included Bendix Ultimate Rotors utilise high carbon metallurgy for superior braking performance and feature diamond tip slots. The bi-directional pillar design efficiently expels gases, water, dust and grit.

During testing, the kit demonstrated reduced braking distance by up to five metres at 100 km/h compared to OEM brakes. Other benefits include a firm brake pedal that resists over-expansion under pressure; minimised brake dust; reduced noise; thermal stability; and resistance to brake fade.

d1101966/tt fortified armoured shock absorbers eye fa png

Terrain Tamer’s new fortified shock absorbers

Designed for: LandCruiser 76/78/79 and Patrol GU/GQ

Terrain Tamer’s new range of monotube fortified shock absorbers is said to be the brand’s heaviest duty shock absorber design ever!

Offering a weight capacity of up to five tonnes, the shocks feature a monotube design. The single cylinder is separated into two chambers – one holds gas, the other fluid – where the piston and shaft move. These chambers are separated by a 60mm free-floating piston and a double u-cup and wiper seal, which stop the gas and oil from mixing. This formula provides better responsiveness and improved heat dissipation.

To assist with ride control when towing or carrying heavy loads, the shocks also feature a 2.5-inch bore diameter for larger oil volume; a 22mm chrome-hardened shaft; and an induction-hardened chrome piston rod.

The new shocks are initially available for a range of 76, 78 and 79 Series LandCruisers, and Nissan Patrol GU/GQ vehicles. They’re ISO 9001:2008-certified and come with a three-year/100,000km non-commercial warranty.

Can-Am has added its latest side-by-side vehicle (SSV) to its line-up: the Maverick R MAX X rs SAS. Built on the Maverick R platform but with two spacious rear seats that allow families and friends to enjoy the action together.
