Looks like the car has sold. A buyer has put down a holding deposit on it.

Moving for good. Been out here for 20 good years and now it's time for chapter 2 :)

Mate, this is my third 3.0L Patrol. The first one was a 2001 - according to some a true grenade
I did 115k in that car with some 55k outback and hard work. Never missed a beat
I then learnt quite...

The rack is sold!

Yes mate. It's the Ironman one. Approx 1 year old

In fact, someone offering me $1k for the set would get it

Yeah mate, only perving on old bags from now on :)

Not a heck of a lot have happened about my new dump pipe and the gauges.
I had collected all the bits including VDO gauges, a boost gauge adaptor, Redback 3" dump pipe and finally an A-pillar pod...

Yeah, I will have that open to me. Reckon I can decide whether to have a muffler or not later on when I replace the aft pieces
I might go and see him tomorrow morning and ask him to order the bits...

I should be able to make it if I start saving up for the diesel for the trip straight away :)

I spoke with a dealer for Redback yesterday - they wanted some $1,300 for a 3" system fitted.

OK, so if you are towing anything worth mentioning with a CRD, I assume you mean EGR block and wider exhaust?

The local dealer saw it attached to the VIN number in his 'puter when they did...

Mate, I suspect they ended up around $400 - $450 with all the bits. I spent more on the plywood than I had to because I bought marine A grade plywood for the lot

I have had 3 GUs, a 2001 manual, 2005 auto and 2009 manual

The 2001 was a bit "sluggish", especially taking off. We towed an Ultimate Offroad Camper a lot behind it and even the sub 1,000...

Here's an update to the never ending rattle saga!
Not that the outcome makes me feel particularly bright at all !!! :bowdown:

I have been through both barn doors, completely stripped down the...

Count me in Paul :bigthumbup:

Mate, I'm in Coffs, up near the Baringa Hospital

G'day Paul,

Good to see another Coffs boy on the forum. Look after yourself mate!

I used to have a good set of DIY drawers in my old GU, ones a mate helped me build and lasted me well.
Here they are:
44600

I pondered for a while buying one of those commercial jobs for my new...

Today has been an excellent day so far!
First thing was I took my Patrol to Nissan for a 50,000Km service. This car is the first second hand car I have bought in a lot of years and it bothered me...

I have been bolting some bits onto my new Patrol

They include:

2" OME Lift
2 Degree Castor Kit
15mm spacers behind the Radius Arms to move the front wheels forward by the same
