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.

Well been a big day, Just got home, used my winch for the first time in nearly a year!
Did some great tracks in the morning then took our hosts to the big hill in my previous video posts as they had not been there before.
I gotta tell you that i have probably watched that video 20 or 30 times as i reckon its awesome but i tell ya it made me complacent about that hill. The video does not even come close to giving that hill justice for what it is. I stood on the first step up today and Said OMG! Holy SH1T! If i had not already driven this there is no way in hell i'd be lining up for it. I cant even imagine how the track got there int eh first place it is just sooooo steep.
I have driven some pretty hard core stuff but it will truly stand as one of the most difficult things i am ever likely to point my 4B at. I was struggling to believe that i could drive it today to be honest. Crazy Stuff.
Well i did not get up without winching today and ended up having to winch 4 sections. Some bits were just 37" deep ruts and i hit them with 35s and they just could not do it.
The other guy in the white GQ that i posted before was with me again, this time he went after me and also winched a section. That car is a Blue Printed JPC prepared TD42 with a JPC fuel pump (Beast and about a $15k rebuild)
Too put a dampener on things he got 3/4 up and his engine shut down and it looks terminal. Damn it, towed him the rest of the way and got him to 4x4 Obsessions in Melton as our hosts were the owners an head mechanics from there so they opened up their shop for us.
Doesn't look good for a very hot engine and feeling a bit flat now. There was a heap of professional video shot today by the guys from 4wd TV who was my Navi so will post up a bit when it gets downloaded to you tube.
Big day, Big hill claimed another car.
