Hello,

Just introducing myself, and my patrol that im putting together.

Car started as a 98 tb45 manual and 3 inch dobonsons lift.
since then i've added,

outback extreme hd clutch
33" bighorns on 15 inch rims
draws, 2x 150amp/h batterys
80l fridge
uhf
dints, scratches and rust.

its no show pony, but its tough as nails.
im building it for camping, and mistreating it like its a pajero.

Im half way through a td42 conversion, engines in and running, just waiting on a radiator and need to finish the wiring.

Welcome to the forum mate. As mudski says, there are no Sh1tbox patrols! But you can rebuild the beast! Great conversion too by the way. Traded my 4.5l for 6.5l diesel...

Thanks for the warm welcome.
Future mods planned:
Wire up dc/dc 20amp charger i brought a while back
Turbo/exhaust setup for the td42, I have most parts.
Fit new lift kit, probably just a 2" flexi lift this time
Source and fit front and rear sway bars (it's to unsafe at the moment, wife wont drive it)
Rear tube bar and rock sliders eventually


The battery's I have in the back are n150 ca/ca. They are really heavy, but last ages and I got them for free.
I'll post up some pictures when I put it back together
