    Sorta like Holden with the Rodeo towbar the put the hole 4mm off centre so you had to buy OE
    I think most would use 10mm air hose

    SOLVED....

    Ok, I have to fess up for being a dope when I said Bunnings didn't have anything. I solved the prob but need to explain. I tracked off to Bunnings and took my spare ARB female coupler along as a test. When I got there, I grabbed the "Charge Air Style" and with the help of the guy, sliced it open to see if the female fit into the male. it didn't.... if you look closely, you will see that the ARB Male is about 1mm longer and so try as I might, it would not force....



    Hence my post above that it was close by no cigar.

    I trundled off to Masters, they only had Nitto style fittings and then off to Super Cheap, who similarly only had Nitto. As I was leaving feeling peeved with the whole thing, I realised that the ARB fitting was a touch long but that would mean the "Charge" fitting would surely fit its male into the ARB Female. So off I went and took my ARB hose with me and..... it fits.... DOH!!!



    That will teach me for not thinking something through using the commonsense-o-meter first....

    Yeah what he did!!

    The first thing I did was strip off the ARB fitting and swap out with what I use on everything. You would do the same with any new air tool you buy. Make it fit your system , don't waste money making your system fit the tool

    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.
