Hows it going guys my name is Chris I have a 1990 gq patrol 4.2 lt na ute
My old ute is fire truck red with 2 inch lift and bf 33 muddies she is pretty old now pushin 460k but the good old 4.2 cranks over every day with the first turn of the key

My interest changed from lowered commodore utes to my GQ after a 4wd weekend with some mates we had a couple of old hilux, a surf , 100 series cruiser and at the time my mates red gq after watching the gq dominate over the hiluxs and surf and only matched by the hungj i knew it was the car I wanted, and I still get a smile on my face every time I have to drag my bosses kited up 2010 hilux out of a bog hole

Ok so that's a bit about me and my old truck just thought I'd join up to share stories and pics with everyone and with my utes age some other members knowledge wouldn't go astray .

Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.

Thanks guys I'll try and russel up some pics of it mine is a bit different everyone thinks from first glance everyone thinks its an mq or mk because my guards are flat on the front end but a mate of mine who has had a few gq says my steering setup is completely different to his and my rear diff looks like its about 12 inch, some one said something about a gq commercial ute???? But I couldnt find anything on the net about it ?? So maybe some one on the forum knows?

Welcome to the forum mate, feel free to ask any questions and join in the conversations.

You should get a better response by asking questions in a different section as a lot of people don't read the introductions.

Welcome, Chris88!!

don't give away any secrets, but is it reasonable to guess that the the ute is two years younger than you? :-)
