Got back from the cape n all I needed was a wash n fuel, I bought a $20 snorkel sock Uni Filter brand n washed it out each night after setting up camp n man every-1 was amazed just how much dirt was coming out each day even though I was only second car in convoy. they checked theirs after 3 days as they were sitting way too close behind me & had to change their filters n blow them out bout 8 times over 3 weeks & I have gone from Cairns to cape then back to Lismore NSW then on to Bathurst n back n my main filter is still clean with bugger all dust in it. so If I was to buy anything it'd be another snorkel sock as it saved me heaps of fuel n drama's. My average over the 6n abit thousand k's towing 1500kg trailer with 2500kg rig n gear was 13.4ltrs per 100km's. 1997 GQ 2.8td manual Patrol done well I thought.
Hi,
something I never see mentioned in spares list - relays. If they go phutt (not often I guess) you stop. They weigh nothing and are small, but important,
cheers and happing tripping. Monty
Maf sensor cleaner, decent jacking plate.Could take the complete Nissan spares Dept,
depending where're going, fuel and air filters.
........and tyre repair plugs!
Also a tool roll with a few basics under the seat
Didn't know about the pepper.. Good to know.
you guys seen/used silicone rescue tape ? handy stuff, can patch brake lines coolant lines etc. other wise i carry jumper leads, carby cleaner, lanox, gaffa tape, and basic tools
I know the list is endless but don't disregard hose clamps of various sizes.
I've saved myself with hoses and also clamping up broken mounts.
One of our earlier trips when a member broke his exhaust mount.
I had a spare 3" clamp and it not only kept the convoy going the member probably still has it clamped on today ;)
