Hi to everyone! I'm David and I'm typing from Italy near Milan.
My history in Nissan stated some years ago with a Patrol SD33 that become my first buggy build (alias Morbo):

Engine with flywheel lowered, pomp and injector settingup, standard 5 gear ed transfer, Patrol GR Y60 axles, 16" rims with beadlock, 9.00 cross tires, 4 link rear with fox 2.5" airshocks, spoa in the front, WB 100", OEM rear locker, ARB RD128 front locker, rear cooler with 2 fans, 8 point 2" dom rollbar, 9000 lb electric winch, etc.

Now I've teard down all and started again... the project is:
new engine, 5.9 litre V8 from Jeep
new bullet proof axles: Unimog 406 (U900)
new front suspension: air ram double effect
new winch: hydraulic home made winch (estimate pulling 15000 lb)
new rollbar (improved safety)

About 2 week ago I bought a Patrol SD33t for allaround use.

Thats all.
Bye bye!

Hi AB... yes, Italy is realy out of mind for football and we have serious safety problem to handle the people without brute force. Poor Italy...
My dream is to come in Australia, looking me around and stay for living...
