Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

Thanks for the response guys. I appreciate it

Thanks Peter. Oftentimes in Namibia we also seem to get "Africa spec" vehicles. These are variants of common vehicles in RSA, that are sold with certain older or less techy components. Thus, it might not even align with cessation of the vehicle variant in RSA. But my question thus still re...

Good evening everyone. I am ashamed to acknowledge that I've not been here in a while. I had some emotional healing to do after I sold my Patrol. It's good to read the posts of all the familiar members again. But now I'm starting to look out for another Patrol, more about that at a another stage on ...

I thought I might give some feedback on these tyres after 6months and 8700km, 60/40 tar/dirt and about 35/65 towing/not towing. Disclaimer: This is my 1st 3ply sidewall on my bakkie, 3rd set on said bakkie overall. Soft sand (beach, dunes) When I took them out on the beach the first time I almost go...

Thanks, yes will take them out and try and give them a bit of maintenance then. Much less work than if it would be a diff issue.

cheers

Evening all I couldn't find a relevant post that covered this topic after a quick search. I am obviously not fantastically mechanical minded like some on this group - but always willing to learn new things and get the hands dirty. So the issue, I installed an Ausie Lokka a couple of months ago in th...

I am not exactly sure where to post this, but here it goes. So I bought old steelies from a later model patrol, and had them painted. Everyone is running black rims these days, and I was looking for something different- not that a red patrol isn't different by itself. I had however a very real issue...

Sorry Fanus

Can't believe I missed your post.
The 255s were still very good, but found a buyer. Still have the steel rims though. Not sure how to get them to you though.
