    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.

    you bast*ard MR...lol

    You are not going to believe this but after driving an hour on rough dirt road on the way home the air con blower elec wire broke off It's zip tie and fell onto the chassis.

    Long story short, it shorted out and blew the main 65amp IGN fuse and the Patrol is stuck at my brothers...lol....Off to a flying start!!!

    Spent half the day trying to get a new one, Repco and Autobarn don't stock them and 3 auto elecs on the way home didnt have them.

    My auto elec mate does have them but he's not back until tomorrow!

    I'm going to drive to my brothers house now as I did promise I will have pics up tonight...lol...Bloody hell guys....lol

    Back in 15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I heard some bad stories about using the 2 can system as you need to press a button under the gloss can which injects the hardner into the can. I heard stories that the hardner doesn't mix properly, etc. Mine was a perfect mix and worked a treat. I think the person that told me they don't work just didn't shake the can long enough...LMAO

    Can't wait Pete, drove it home blew the main fuse due to short on the alternator wire took 3 days to get the fuse and now It's at a mechanics getting the RWC.

    Ive hardly driven this thing and It's been a week already...lol

    Kind of like starving for food and each day you get home someone just dangles a chicken fillet burger in your face as you walk past the carport...lol....ARRGH!!!!
