    Chris' Safari

    Hey guys I thought I would post up some pictures of my 1990 SWB Safari pretty much messing about with it all the time replacing things and redoing things as most of you will know it becomes addictive and also a constant on going process but anyway so far I have only really done routine maintenance on the engine like replacing all the filters, fluids, put in a new 3 row core radiator with the showoff blue hoses haha. Also in the middle of completely redoing the interior which is almost done I have a thread on the interior section http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...821#post493821 which I think I will finish here.

    The mods on the truck so far (not all done by me) are:
    2" suspension lift
    2" body lift
    WARN winch
    custom bar work
    35" kuhmo tyres

    my list of what I plan to do to it is pretty endless!

    Thanks guys! Got a few more pics to put up of the headliner and a pile of stuff sitting in my living room to fit! This weekends mission is changing the side windows from the slide style to fixed glass. Anyone had any experience of doing this that could give me some advice. The rubbers for it are the 2 part style with the locking piece

    Hey guys just a bit of an update. Had a pretty busy weekend stripping everything out of the interior and sorting out some wiring issues, rewired the speakers, done some sound dampening and fitted the new carpet . Feels like I'm almost getting there with the interior now just a few bits and pieces to do
