    Patrol convert

    Hi All,

    I’m Andrew a very recent convert to Patrol ownership after 20 odd years as a Land Rover tragic. We have just purchased a very low mileage 09 GU that we are kitting out from totally stock for an extended trip through The Kimberly, Pilbara and Red Center a few months from now. It will be steep learning curve I’m sure and I may well be forced to ask some potentially stupid questions to avoid damaging the car or myself. Not much done as yet just a bullbar, winch, snorkel, stereo and 2 way but we’ve only had it a fortnight. The list of modifications to come seems to be growing daily and time is short.

    Cheers Andrew.

    Currently own a ZD30 2000 GU patrol with a dead injector pump about to start a build on a TD42 motor to go in the car and basically rebuild the whole car into a machine of a rig

    Welcome mate!

    No such thing as a stupid question.

    Maybe a stupid answer 😂
    Cheers,

    Hi and welcome to the forum.
    As I lay there looking up, taking in the spectacular view that was the night sky and the multitude of stars I asked myself, where did my tent go?

    G'day and welcome to the forum.
    2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder


    And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.

    Comments like this makes people like me comfortable enough to ask questions, learn and then have enough experience to help the next lot of Patrol owners that come through.

    Thanks mate.
