Not Bruces spill proof undies
I reckon that all Patrol owners should get the new "Truckster Trainers" (not the spill resistant undies that Bruce wears) that are for sale on www.newinventions.com
Basically they are a bit like large training
wheels that attach to roof racks and when a sensor feels more than 30 degrees of angle or 250 lbs of lateral inertia shift in the vehicle mass they deploy downwards and make contact with the ground hence averting a rollover.
Apparently ther are not required for Landcruisers or other model toyotas

Wouldnt that be similar abliet rather odd looking to the system employed by a few hydraulic engineers for stability control?
They use rams on the sway bar connects and a pendulum under the bonnet that controls the hydraulic rams when sway if sensed.
That way you have better cornering and anti-roll on side slopes etc!
Im sure it would look a hole lot better than big trainer
wheels on the side of your rig!! lol

after a few emails and countless phone calls i have found out they dont make them for toyota because toyota are not a good enough vehicle(lack of off road ability)to spent heaps of money on development.
