    Woohoo - I got a Patrol

    Hi Everyone

    Just bought my 1st patrol! Its a 2004 ZD30 automatic.

    Got a long list of goodies :
    * LPG injection
    * xforce 3 inch exhaust
    * ARE upgraded intercooler, scoop and fan
    * ARB winch bar (no winch though)
    * Bolsy Rock Sliders
    * ARB rear bar with dual wheel carrier
    * Tough Dog adjustable shocks
    * superior engineering uper control arms, panhard rods, track rod, drop boxes
    * removable swaybar links front and rear
    * Twin air compressor setup
    * Reverse spottie and camera
    * Dual Batteries
    * Spotties and LED light Bar
    * UHF radio
    * roof bars and awning
    * ECU talk
    * Boost gauge
    * Pyro Gauge
    * Full NADS (needle valve, dawes valve, catch can, erg block)

    Pretty happy with it so far, although its had a few annoying problems but have sorted a few of them out by searching the wealth of knowledge here on the forum.

    Cheers

    Adam

    Thanks for the welcome

    I have a bit of a question and not really sure of what forum section to post to....
    I'm looking at getting a snatch strap, but not really sure what rated load I should be looking at for the patrol. I've read a few articles and I think I'm more confused than when I started!
    Also are there any brands that I should be avoiding - I've heard that there are some straps made of polyester rather than nylon that dont perform as well.....

    Cheers
    Adam

    Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it. If you want to find it, go to the search bar for a universe of information. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the greatest show on earth.

    I have a mix of ARB and BCF XTM's bought straps. Not sure about the different materials.
    I would think as long as you have something is better than nothing.
    Buy the best you can afford.
