    with that said... I was thinking alot closer to the $1000 mark, sounds like we were both a bit off the average price lol
    Wow yeah thats a bit off for only 2 year use, sorry mate, would have considered it if I had the car for longer then 2 years.


    Awesome looking though!

    All good mate. Although the ebay one looks the goods though, if you get one, would you get it engineered?
    33's, 2' lift, Snorkel, Warn XD95000 Winch (Just exploded... July 2014), UHF, 6 Point Cage, and no clue on how to use any of it... I drove over a gutter once!!! and it wasn't the rounded variety either!!!

    I am leaning more and more to not getting one. Not even sure how it works with insurance (although my car is already undervalued). A 4wd custom company quoted me 450 for a simple roll cage (2 points). Found also a beautiful one for the landcruiser 100 for just 100 bucks but yeah different size. I posted it here just to keep my eyes open. Good is that I get the impression that it is not required for my trip.

    I want to keep the rear seats and have at the moment a half cargo barrier.

    It sucks a bit that I cant invest in my car like when you have the car for years, but at least it forces me to keep it simple.

    That eBay one looks like the standard Mine Spec I reckon, hang out and you will get one cheaper. I'd love to put something like that in my GQ.

    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.

    If you click the link, it will take you to the album with more pics of the cage, including the mounts, and joints.
