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.

Yesterday now, honestly thought I’d wasted $75 USD downloading the complete series workshop/parts/maintenance manuals for our officially now vintage 3.0T breakout force drott/track loader beast
Thanks to the puter file received it turns out after further investigations that a usual Aussie-Case backhoe runs the same torque converter sleuthing
Found one ready in NSW ready for changeover and rolling again

Inhave a GB70. I used it to start Roofy's car in the back yard when we did the big clean up. It had not been run for a year and the radio didn't even work. I was a little worried but left it sit a minute then cranked it into life. To Mt surprise I immediately removed it like I have before ans the car shut down. I jumped it again and left it connected for 15 minutes while the Alternator caught up.
It has jumped my GU TD a heap of times too. Jumped the GQ a few times too. As mentioned it is plugged in constantly in the back of the car so always fully charged. It's been great.

Also have the Noco GB70 that's rated at 2000 amps. Haven't needed it yet for the Patrol but I do use it to start my old Kubota tractor occasionally rather than buy a new battery for it..
My previous 400 amp Powertech, that I got as a gift, wouldn't start the tractor and also wouldn't start my wife's 2.2l TD Sorento.

This is probably your old one Stropp, it’s a 1975 model and one of its ripper’s has been customised for cable laying to a depth of around telco 400mm 🪝
