Hi Guys, I'm new to the site. Have just purchased a 1989 Patrol. Wow its a Sherman Tank. Female driver, and i guess due to the age of the ol'girl I'll be needing some parts and advice along the way. Heading out west so needed a solid, reliable vehicle. I really hope this is the one. Anyway look forward to catching up. Cheers

Welcome to the forum Mando, have no mech/tech advice to give bar if you have a question and post it, you'll get a barrage of useful info ranging from interesting to indepth. Take what is useful but remember to repay by progress reports, thanks and most importantly PHOTOS..even if it's a GQ!!! lol

A huge thanks, feeling really welcome, thanks guys. Might try to tackle a few issues myself. Startin with wiring the spotlights, but have a relay wiring plan, so will work off that. Cross fingers.
First question..........
I have a dodgy speedo, just whips around to flat bikkie and stays there. If I drive about 5kms and stop then start the motor it seems fine. What the????? Need to get a new steering wheel too, am I gunna be able to fit it, or should I leave it up to an expert. Mmmmmm...... A GQ was that a smart move, I think so.

Yes yes and yes
You will need a steering wheel puller ($30) to get the old one off make sure your wheels are straight when you take it off and put the new one on!
