    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.

    Yep, after slipping around on the smooth concrete floor with the plastic two step unit, I glued emery paper to the bottom of the feet - problem fixed, no more excursions at exactly the wrong time.

    That is a clever idea, assume there is still a fair bit of heat from above and below, pizza should still be pretty moist as well as the steam has nowhere to get out.
