If all goes according to plan my Patrol will be fitted with a 2" lift Terrain Tamer suspension tomorrow. Feeling quite excited about the prospect.
Once this is done we are ready for our extended trip to the Richtersveld and Namibia.
Thanks to Graham Cumming for sorting out all the niggles on my Patrol and getting it ready for the trip. RTT to be fitted next week.

Hey guys where can I have my suspension checked.

I am finding it hard on corrugations.

I might not have deflated enough but still very hard ride.

Who is the suspension guru here in the North West Rand.

Must say I love the Patrol in the Bush just want to check if all is in spec.

Possibly plan a lift at some stage.
