Just joined this group last night as I planing to get another fourby and looks like it may be a patrol.

Have in the past had a rocky and then a troopy with current car been far from an offroader being a 09 hsv senator but the bush is calling again due to the kids getting old enough to explore our great country.
Any help will be much appreciated

Looking to build a gu patrol up for touring with wife and two kids trips will proberly be of about 2-3 weeks long so will need to be a bit self sufficient so could anybody recommend a vehicle that a member may have that could be used as a guide.

Well went to look at a patrol today to see if it was to be the vehicle for me and bugger me dead 4 hrs later it has become mine.
So here is a quick run down on what it is.
2011 crd manual ti some of the extras already on it are as follows:
Snorkel ,steel bull bar, warn winch, cargo barrier,2 inch ome lift, driving lights

Will get some photos up after I take delivery of it next week

Do you recommend any other mods that will make this a more reliable vehicle

I think it has Bridgestone duellers on it but will be looking at some coopers down the track had them on previous 4 wds and could not fault

Have been doing a bit of a search around regarding additional gauges but doesn't seem to be a problem with the crd's. is this correct?
