I got caught out with this. I didn't realise that there is a driver and passenger side spring and installed it wrong way around. Had to take it all out and put back the right way. My Patrol is now...

Thanks to all for the welcome. I am enjoying the forum and find heaps of usefull information and sometimes just good fun reading to pass the time. Good forum!

I always understood the front chassis hook and rear loop to be rated for recovery as it states that in the owners manual. I am a bit dubious using it, but have used it in the past. I will replace...

Some people don't understand that just because you can see where you are going, it doesn't mean other drivers can see you.

This is a reality check. How dumb can you be. A bit of common sense goes a long way when in situations like that.

I thought about it as well as it would change from a 7 to 8 seater. I would be really interested to have a look at such a conversion if someone in Brisbane has done it before.

Do you think a larger snorkel head will improve fuel consumption on a petrol as well? What is normal consumption for a 4.5 petrol?

Thanks, very usefull information indeed. And seeing the Cruiser makes you realise how quick thinks can go wrong. I will buy a couple more snatch blocks.

Hi welcome, I did the same once. Used the coathanger, but pulled the top corner of the driver's door away slightly to get the wire in. A friend on the passenger side window guided me until I hooked...

Welcome and enjoy the company.

Losers that are not prepared to put in a honest day's work. To easy to steal. Hope they get caught and you get your car back before it is stripped.

Welcome. Sounds like a nice set-up. Post some photos once you got it figured. Don't kow how to myself.

Welcome, keep us posted on the progress.

Welcome, and get a 4.5 pertol. We can share fuel saving tips. Lots of grunt though.

Welcome, I moved closer to the sunny coast to be near the good tracks. Stacks of fun.

Welcome. Good way to spend Easter - fixing your Patrol

Welcome and looking forward to more aftermarket equipment for Patrols. What equipment are you looking at producing?

Good story and welcome!

Thanks for a very handy post.

Good read, thanks

My GU11 had the same problem. I rotated the wheels and it went away for a while but came back. Was also intermittent. My tyres were getting worn and I had to replace. Since I fitted my Cooper ST Max...

Hi Westy's, I'm northside of Brissie and am the proud owner of a petrol gusling 2001 GU 4.5L.

Doesn't matter how many times you've been there, you will always go back!

I'm new to the forum and looking forward to catching up.
