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.

No Hodge, I have the ATOC kit installed by them and no body lift.
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

Was yours a bolt on or weld on ?
My 3L was done there as well bolt.on kit but I thought the full weld on proper tower braces needed the body to be lifted.

The Atoc weld in kit, which is what I want to use, does not need the body to be lifted.
I would have used one of the bolt on kits, and install them myself, but my spring towers have started to crack, so there is going to be some welding any way.

I ended up getting the weld on tower braces done at Edge Automotive in Howit street Ballarat, after a 4000km trip through outback NSW an SA, with the Patrol loaded up and towing a camper, no further problems, so I can recommend them for the job.
