Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

Goed nou sien ek die Cruiser se neus

Ek is baie tevrede met my TJM bumper. Hy is Airbag compatible. Hy is baie sterk en lyk baie mooi.

En mens kan stickers opplak!!

My ARB bar is in-country, hopefully by next week I'll be the owner of a meaner looking Patrol here in PE!!!

Saw JohnBoy's Patrollie @ Burnco in Stikland, Blvl. yesterday....

They are really moving it!!

Maybe you'll have it by the w/end. (Hein drink Brannewyn)

My rear bumper for my Hardbody i had welded up by a friend. Its simple and it works for me.User friendly

Ok for a Patrol a much heavier one would be required. No funny comments now hey

I can lift the vehicle up with the rockslider if need be, but i need something like this high lift to do the trick.

These are the high lift type creations i was talking about. But i botched up the first post now. So if need be i can lift the Hardbody up on the one side. I welded the rocksliders on.

Sorry i dont know whats the Afrikaans name for the High lift Jack. Herman (AKA Engel) would say a moffie stokkie

You are the man IAN!!!

Dis van T15 staal gemaak, lyk goed, gee goeie grondvry-hoogte en my 12000pd winch het daar ingepas, geen probleem nie. Ek sal rerig aanbeveel dat mens bietjie meer uithaal vir so 'n belangrike item, WANT:

1: Die TJM en ARB bumpers is "airbag-compatable"
2: Hulle roes nie.
3: Is rerig sterk en buig nie soos Ironman / Redback nie. Die twee kom uit dieselfde fabriek.
4: As jy R9000 spandeer en die ding buig en brand jou winch van R9000 uit as jy probeer ecover, sit jy dubbel die skade. Ek het dit ondervind toe my vriend sy Ironman gebuig het op sy Hilux. Dis nie lekker as jy in die veld sulke probleme optel nie.
5: In 'n ongeluk bied die TJM en ARB meer beskerming vir jou en jou voertuig. Dink DONKIE teen 100km/h...

Ek sou nie 'n pay-as-you-go winch koop nie....

Dit lyk baie nice, ek het myne bestel en hy word die 22ste van die maand aangesit.

Hi Scuba Patrol

Did you come right with your bumpers - I have got Hein Burnett's (Burnco CT) front and rear replacement bumpers (rock sliders too!!) on my Patrol - and are very happy with it. I have got a 9500 TMAX winch in front - have done several and some real heavy duty recoveries and have absolutely experienced no problems!!! And his price is a lot more competive to names like ARB / TJM / NUDGE etc. And in my modest opinion - there are many things in life and on the market of which half the price is for the name - it is like buying parts for your Patrol from the agents!!! The same thing can be found in "pirate parts" at half the price just because it does not come out of a box that says Nissan. I take my fan in front of the radiator for instance - the agents wanted R1550-00 for it - I got one from a spares shop in CT for R150-00 brand new - and it is the exact same thing!!!! My bumpers and rocksliders have taken some severe knocks - I am not ashamed to use them to my benefit - to the extend that I already had them re-sprayed at Hein once since fitted (2 years ago). No damages of any kind was on / in the metal itself - everything was just severe scratches from sliding over rocks etc.

I am not too concerned about the airbag compatibility issue - and honestly don't know or never asked if Hein's are - but then again I don't drive my Patrol at 160 km/h!!! All I know is whatever comes in front of that bumper is going to be flattened with the earth - the only thing I would not want to take on is a Truck Hauler - he is bigger than me!! And I feel sorry for the guy who drives into my ass - he is going to come off second best!!

Not even the taxis here in Belville looks for sh*t with me when I am on the road - the other day a taxi made the mistake of trying to cut in in front of me at a robot from a compulsary carry on straight lane whilst I was turning right at the robot - I flattened the throttle and pushed him until he ended up on the pavement!!!! I am sure he hurt a cv joint or wheelbearing or two - because he had to speed away from my front otherwise I would have crumbled his side!!!

My worth

At last!!! My TJM Bumper has been fitted today I just came home after being stuck in traffic
