$5k worth of ARB gear - how to spend it right?
With the help of many a forum member, I have won ARB's win $5k for your 4x4 competition.
As I mentioned, if i was to win, all proceeds were going to be pumped in to my new 2008 DX patrol.
Open to suggestions on where the money is best spent in order to get the best value for money.
Ill post progress shots as everything starts to come together!

Bull bar, winch, front locker. That's what I'd do mate but there are so many ARB products you will not find it very hard to spend 5k!

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.

Nah that would be the Order i would buy things mate until i ran out of cash. you would likely get near that full list but i dont think you'd have anything left. But a very good car.
Cant think of anything i would put ahead of anything in that order though??
