Hello Tony. I've read good things about More 4x4 in Brookvale. They're doing a fair bit of work with the Grenadier. I think @TheDocAUS has used them and may be able to provide a first hand impression.

Offroad System are very good. @globalgregors and I plus many others have used them. They customize to your needs. ORS has done many Grenadiers now.

I had ORS in the Nissan Patrol and their gear lasted a decade without breaking. The drawers still opened after the big smash.

Plus XHQ did part of my Grenadier build.

Here are some pictures of my fitout. My fitout is for extensive offroad use. You can do Cape York with less.

Thread 'AUSTRALIA: Third Party Suppliers for the INEOS Grenadier and QM'

PART 1
The Quartermaster's chassis is longer than the Grenadier's, so not all the Grenadier's accessories will fit (like the side steps and rock sliders). QM owners should double check accessories fitment.

1. Airbag Man suspension for the Grenadier and QM, both come in standard and 2 inch lift kits. QM kits here and Grenadier Kits here; and

Shops that have lots of experience with the IG or QM are:

1. ORS, Smeaton Grange, NSW
2. MORE4X4, Brookvale, NSW
3. Expedition HQ (XHQ), Gold Coast, Qld
4. GrenX, Victoria

I have not used MORE4X4, but I may in the near future for airbags.

My suggestions:

1. pick an outfitter (ORS are good and trustworthy);
2. discuss with them your needs, listen to their feedback;
3. decide your budget, then work out and cost your fitout;
4. you do not need to have every gadget; focus on the core things like storage, fridge, water, food, camp lights, extra fuel, battery power, sleeping arrangements, essential spares, etc;
5. MUST HAVES: snake bite kit, first aid kit, puncture repair kit, UHF radio (portable or installed - installed are better but dearer), basic recovery gear like a recovery strap, shovel and shackles, lastly onboard ARB/TJM air compressor (better) or a portable air compressor (cheaper);
6. THE LAST MUST HAVE: something for number 2s and lady’s number 1s like this (dig hole, place seat over hole, do your business, burn toilet paper, fill in hole). Way better than squatting. Mine has a modesty flap (the recovery shovel can double as the hole digger);
7. if you are going off the main tracks alone carry a PLB or sat phone. I travel remotely alone, so for me this is a must have. On the main routes into the Cape there is normally traffic during tourist season;
8. rear wheel garbage bag of some type, unless you want rubbish in the car;
9. print out and take the Rok Dr Guide;
10. if towing, you may need some electrical work and airbags.

Hi Guys.
... Is Purnells a good option?


Thanks
Tony

As much as I like the Purnell team, fit outs is not their strong point. Plus it will cost more than ORS or other third parties.
