Hi Guys,
Just recently picked up a 2006 GU Patrol & have been gathering some info on here about do's and don'ts......and everything in between
It has a few mods that were fitted before I purchased it. Snorkel, alloy bar, spotties, BFG's, Dual batteries, roof racks, tow ball , reverse camera & electric brakes.
It looks like its had a pretty easy life & only had 120ks on it when I got it.
Looking forward to chatting to you all & enjoying the Patrol.

Just wondering if anyone in the Maitland/Newcastle area know any good Diesel mechanics? Im looking at the Tillix valve set up & I would just rather someone with more experience than me doing it...I would probably get a boost gauge installed at the same time.
Cheers.


Sorry for the 2 pics ...bloody computers!!!!

Whats this Tillix valve set up you talk about???

Thought so best you PM AD07, with your instructions
he should be able to set it up without any fuss

@ AD07 Id be fitting a Boost and EGT gauge just to let you know whats happening under the bonnet
plus any mods you do you'll be able to see any improvements etc good or bad
