    Yeah you guys weren't scared to launch into the new world of plastic either.

    But seriously, if you were going to do a conversion, it would have to be easier to just stick with the lever set up rather than pumps and servos and actuators?

    I just pulled up a VIN from a Euro spec GRX. Its got factory rear stabilizer release. Now to work out a parts list. Lol I bet this will turn out to be an expensive list.

    All electric mate. Just did a rough calculation. It will cost me around 3.5K in parts if I bought them new. I think I will leave this one for now.

    So a couple of pictures.
    To fit the gq setup you'll need to get the chassis bracket and change them over.
    So some cutting and welding required.
    So the t handle.
    It's a simple cable exactly like the old ford T handle hand brakes..


    Next is the main unit. As you can see its quite a a different bracket so I'd say this is the critical bit..
    The wires are simply a sensor for the dash light..

    And just for comparison a stock bracket
    Cheers

    You should remove the disconnect from the GQ mate. I have a kit in my shed that I gave never got around to fitting to the GU. Would be simple enough though I reckon.

    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.
