Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

Ek is redelik seker dat hy nog die oorspronklike diff ratios in het. Ek het ook gehoor van die speedo wat uit is en het dit maar so aanvaar. As die groen meneer 4.3 ratios in gehad het sou hy vreeslik hoog gerev het op spoed en ek het gevind hy is heel normaal. As ek reg onthou het hy hier by 2800 r...

Daai is nou reg bande. Ek hoop julle ry lekker en geniet die trip.

I enjoyed the gas struts on the GU bonnet very much, felt so fancy between Hiluxes and Fords. So I tried to research how to do it on a GQ and found very little or outdated unavailable posts. So I tried my luck and believe it worked quite well. IMG_0923.jpg IMG_0925.jpg IMG_0927.jpg IMG_0928.jpg IMG_...

IMG_1240.jpg So after the river trip there was a few things I wanted to change and start preparing for December.

Verskillende modelle is sekerlik anders gekalibreer afhangende van standaard diff ratios. :mytwoce...

It has been a wile since I have done an update and a lot has happened. I have been jumping between projects as time, parts and money becomes available so I just continue with different things as I am able to. Firstly note that 35” with a N/A TD42 is not your friend. I have never before experienced a...
