    The whole truck weapon is a credit to your hard yakka efforts mate, beast @AB & @Winnie & @Many Mates, when time permits can you kindly guide Dave to your clutch/plate successes.

    That's a shame about the clutch mate. I'm not running as much power as you but not far off it. I was in a rush and needed a clutch within a couple of days so I bought a new Exedy safari tuff clutch through Patrolapart, it is holding just fine when towing over 3 tonne of firewood.
    But if I had time for a very similar price I would get an NPC Isuzu 6x6 clutch, only thing is it takes a week or two for them to post it to you.

    Thanks guys, I’ll look at upgrading the clutch after winter.

    It’s fine for now, but will need to do something about it. If it was an old clutch it wouldn’t like it, but was brand new 3,000kms ago. Only an eBay special but didn’t think I’d get through the power mods so quick lol

    Exedy Safari Tuff HD, UFI Clutch or NPC viper clutch. The first 2 I would recommend lightening the flywheel and balancing the mass. The NPC comes with a nice light flywheel and should be balanced.

    Thanks nissannewby

    I spoke to Exedy during the week, they rate the heavy duty safari at 800nm at the flywheel which I am exceeding, they say it will hold 1,000nm at the flywheel but I don’t want to do it twice so that ones off the list.

    Spoke to Marty at UFI, he rates his clutch at 850nm at the wheels, seeing as everything else is UFI I will be ordering one from them in a couple of weeks.

    I have some sneaky mods already planned that I have half paid for that will have to take priority before doing the clutch.

    Took her out on the weekend, Noojee, Mt Matlock, Mt Selma, Mt Useful then home through Walhalla, 500kms, loving the power!!

    Picked up my car yesterday from the fabricator, had a new roof rack/cage made, nice and low to the roof line!!




    Now with the extra oomph it has, I needed it to handle a bit better on the blacktop, Refitted the rear sway bar, bought a plate from Nissan to ditch the factory disconnect and just ran a standard type link.

    Then fitted new tyres, 35x12.5 17 Sailun Terramax Muddies, not expecting a lot for the price but will do for now

    Also found my small steering play that I’d been chasing for ages, loose panhard to chassis bolt, obviously I’d forgotten to tighten it after fitting the panhard a couple of 1,000 kms ago
