Re: Y62 with 35” Tyres

Hi Mark. Much better using these custom spacers with their own studs. :thumbup: Just make sure the original studs and bolts are not protruding past the wheel spacer mating surface (it looks like they are in the pic - might be an optical illusion). As you need the wheel mating surface to site hard up...

Re: New Winscreen Issues

Been down this road before a few times and what i leant is: - the little windscreen clips are not essential post fitment, they simply there to space the windscreen during fitment, so any good fitter just uses a spacer block or similar to do the job. - the 2 nissan windscreen mouldings cost around R2...

Re: Y62 with 35” Tyres

Hi Mark, please clarify why you'll need longer studs ? Are you making up a wheel spacer that essentially has 6 holes in it, and the wheel is still held on by origninal/longer studs ?... if this is the case , i would not recommend this solution. a few solutions are at your disposal really: - Steering...

Re: So I got the Holy Grail!

Very nice, and in my opinion, the best colour Patrol's ever came out in from factory.

I almost put in an offer on a 4,8GL same colour, that was for sale in Bloem, about 2 years ago, beautiful configuration, love it.

Re: Y61 Bakkie tub removal

This is epic Dave & Pete, sjoe. Well done so far.

For 11 year, since i purchased my Patrol pickup, ive dreamt of changing it to a tray-back, with a separate canopy.

Brilliant design guys, cant wait to see more pics.

This makes for MUCH better handling on and offroad, specially on high speed highways cornering, or on big angles/offcamber sections off road. T...

Re: winch size

Pete, being an engineer, in the presence of a recovery, would most likely have er'd on the side of caution, and offered his snatch block to be used. :thumbup:
