@ RT do you have wire on your winch , if so changing to Dyneema/Plasma and removing the roller fairlead
will drop 30kg plus off your waist line lol. Can I suggest you get the patrol weighed and then see
where you can make changes.

30kg? Dropped 13kg on mine. But yes there are things you can do - unless like me you've already built in a heap of stuff & to remove it destroys the integrity of the entire layout.

Unfortunately I think your best option will be to talk to the engineers in Adelaide..
But if you've done most the work it may not be much more needed to be signed off on it

I might have a chat to an engineer and see what they say. Probably want to book a runway for a lane change test.....
3D, I have rope on the winch so unfortunately no savings there.
