Welcome Anton. The Manual 4.8 is super rare. Awesome vehicle.

Jissie, julle manne maak my darem nou baie opgewonde vir 'n toets-uitstappie!

Ek het altyd gehoor en geweet die 4.8 handrat is iets spesiaal en het nog so stukkie gesoek voordat ek maar sou moes aanbeweeg op 'n soeke na 'n GRX - niks fout nie, ek wou net graag handrat gehad het vir eerste Patrol!

Is daar regtig so min van die 4.8 handrat? En is dit net so in SA?

Hey hey, welcome to the Patrol Forum family,

Yeah some great CT guys, I've met a good few of them over the years, and you also have our own Patrol Guru, Frans Fourie (tour de Frans) here on the forum to look after anything that may need attention on the Patrol

Hi ricster, thank you!

I was wondering where I would take my truck for its first service after buying it so the info on Frans is excellent. I would like a third pair of eyes on it for a once over.

I stay in Jhb, and a few times a few years back, when i went down to see my folks in the Cape, Frans had a look at my Patrol and tweeked a few things. Hmmmm... that man knows his stuff
