So here goes. My 1993 GQ Patrol.
I'm not one for posting photos. I'm paranoid like that....
What I have is a 1993 GQ Patrol ST with a TB42e engine. Manual transmission and STD driveline. Purchased from a person who owned it 12 months and never looked at anything. you can imagine the state it was in.
Mods when purchased:
2 Inch Dobinson Lift
LPG Conversion
Useless snorkel not hooked up to air box and cracked.
In serviced and unloved machine. lots of dodgy add on electrical items and other weird paraphernalia.
Klms: 201466
tires: 31 inch Road tires on 3 spoke TI Rims.
Modifications so far:
33Inch Maxxis bighorn MT 762's on black 15x8 -22 Dynamic "D" style rims
ARB 3/4 Roof Rack
ARB Front low/High mount winch bar
Road runner Off-road 12500lbs winch with Synthetic rope and wireless controller added
Pair of Nite stalker Halogen driving lights
22 Inch light bar mounted above driving lights
32 inch light bar on roof rack (Not hooked up as of yet)
GME TX3500s UHF Radio with a 6DB Elevated feed antenna
GME Long range AM/FM Radio antenna
britax Semi Sealed headlight inserts
custom Conveyor belt rear mud flaps
GU Steering box upgrade
Adjustable Panard rods front and rear
Heavy duty tie rods and drag link
future plans are to remove the LPG and fit a STD Fuel tank back in the same place, while also running the 70Lt belly tank. this will allow me to tackle trips such as Cape York with reasonable Fuel capacity.
replace snorkel with one that is not cracked and sealed up with sika flex.
fit a bigger Exhaust and try to keep it quiet.
and most importantly, Drive it to places the daily wont get me!
Cheers for the read!
