Re: DOUBLE CAB 4.8 PATROL
The only company I am aware of thast does this sort of thing, and then not sure if they only do it to Cruisers, is Meano & Sons, in Krugersdorp. Give them a buzz and let us know what they say.G-MAN wrote:Who can make my Patrol a d/cab?
Edit: Bailies Off Road also seem to do this, also to Cruisers... They are situated in Midrand, Gauteng.

Re: DOUBLE CAB 4.8 PATROL
It will probably be better to convert a Patrol bakkie to a double cab. Talk to Bailies. Maybe they can help.

Re: DOUBLE CAB 4.8 PATROL
My Safari bakkie is deur Meano's omskep in 'n double cab doer in 1986 en dit is die double cab met die meeste beenspasie van enige d/c.SJC wrote:Did you ever find someone that can do this?

Re: DOUBLE CAB 4.8 PATROL
Guess there are 2 choices,
take a van and cut just behind the C pillar and add a shortened "bak" (seen many Patrol ones for sale) Have seen some 100 series conversions like this. Advantage, seat belts , seats , doors etc sorted.
Usual, take bakkie and hack extra cabbie on., still need to shorten the bak, add roofline etc
First option seems easier
