Hi. I was wondering what is better a new 3L common rail or a 2006 4.2?

I bought a 2012 3L and was wondering how to install drawers

The type of drawers are outback.

My drawers were from my previous patrol and the holes don't line up.

Also how do I install a duel battery

The brand I have is a red arc

I'm not sure where I should put the solenoid

I chose a place for the solenoid but the my drill is too big to screw it into place and suggestions on where to pit it

It is meant to say put

When buying lights bar light or spotties

I chose a light bar for the rear of my car but should I get light force spotties for the front

I've got some lightforce spotties on the roof rack

I decided to choose spotties on the front

It is meant to say bar

Arb bull bar

Arb bullbat?

The deluxe winch bar I am thinking of

The winch bar is worth $1700 is this right

That's what I was thinking but I went with a 3.0l as it was newer and I wasn't going to be towing much

I bought a new 3 litre the other week and went and got prices. The arb bull bar was $1700 before powder coating.

I bought the patrol a few weeks ago and it been a headache. The red arc system wasn't going to plan. The bull bar is more expensive than I thought.

I'm from India. Just moved to Australia t months ago

Sorry. It meant to saw two

If you do a search on those subjects you should find all the answers you need mate. Regarding the 3L/4.2 I would personally get the 4.2 as I eventually want a camper trailer and the 4.2 would tow it so much easier also wont hurt as much the first few bush pin stripes

Hey mate how's it going? Are you trying to get your post count up?? Lol.
Anyway id personally go an older 4.2 diesel rather than a newer 3lt.
Really hope your not just trying to get your post count up for the manual

Tap, crackle, pop

Hey mate, where are you from??

You will not get away with posting crap on this forum mate as you probably already realised. Post a few sensible posts and you will be fine.

Welcome by the way

Head o Ed to the intro section and start an intro thread. We ask everyone to say g'day before asking for advice.

thanks mate, didn't even know about the 25 posts manual thing just joined becuase I liked patrols, own one and this forum seemed to be the most genuine. Been here a while now and hopefully well into the future, didn't just join to get a manual like what it seems some people may do.

Kread's fingers must have dropped off. Hes gone pretty quiet!! Lol what a pissa.

He's still lurkin mate, done a couple of welcomes, strangley one dissappeared, then he went to 4x4 parks, WA.
Hopefully he got the msg, stopped the crap and realised this aint a bad place for 4x4. Never know he may hang around. Wouldnt mind seeing an intro from him though.
