Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

The first photo seems to be a standard steel rim. The other seem to be the standard series 1/2 alloy rims as per the photo I've attached. But... are you sure those are 17" rims ? Both of those came out in 16" only, as far as I know. What size tyres are you running ? ie: 285/75R16 / whateve...

Hi Anika - and welcome to the forum. The PCD (pitch circle diameter) for the Patrol is not standard. I believe that some forum members who have used after market rims have had the PCD machines out on their rims in order to get them to fit. However, I do not know the details on this as I am running s...

Heiko - welcome to the forum. There are several members here with Y62's. Unfortunately, us poor folk who cannot afford them all have Y60's / Y61's. :rolling: :rolling: As such, I'm totally the wrong person to ask.

Springkaan - chat with DAvid Volschenk or Tinus Lotz - they will both be able to sort you out. Should be the H233B on the 4.8 Auto. How does it happen?

Does it labour the clutch or does it ease over the rocks like a big in-line six? And similar for deep soft sand, does it hunt on the auto (or require you to rev up to ma...

The persons buying these vehicles will state two things in order to justify their sad choices. 1: Dealer network / service / parts availability etc. 2: Toyota reliability. Both which statements sort of exclude the other one. ie: Why worry so much about parts availability for a truck that apparently ...

Peter - I hear your comments about proper convoy discipline and convoy driving. It is what I was used to prior to the radio thing. As you know, my father and I regularly tour together. The radio changes the way one tours. It makes it easier passing trucks on the road, reporting on hazards in the roa...

Thanks Lawrence. I was unaware of this. Would you mind sharing details of the other companies who do these types of antennas ?
