    Well sometimes on the beach you do what you gotta do..
    It was bloody soft atm and once you have momentum you don't stop..
    Stopping to go into high range and then trying to start again would more than likely resulted in bogged patrol. .
    Anyway..
    I was on 60 k neat..
    For some reason I though my gq got 80 in low 5th..
    But clearly dreaming lol. .
    No haven't fitted the 24% box yet darren..
    Cheers

    Best post today so far
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    Certainly not when they need to get it done but were your enemy when we were doing the commute between tracks in the hills. Perfect for what you do though mate for sure.

    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.

    Maybe the beaches are different down SA way to up at QLD. When I was on Moreton I don't think I even used low range. I suppose for the dunes it would be a lot different though! Just high 1st or 2nd mainly for the hills and boggy sand and just plenty of the right foot... Out on the open beach runs just cruised in high 4th, in 2wd sometimes made for awesome rooster tails. Lol.
