Hi all

[aaron.dalton80]

Hope everyone is having a good day!
Just a quick introduction
I'm Aaron from the Gold Coast in Australia
I have a 2000 with a blown ZD auto which I intend to swap out for a TD and probably change it to manual.
If anyone has any tips and tricks to make this a little less daunting please send it over to me!!!
Think my biggest concern is the wiring to be honest!

Thanks

Welcome Aaron.
My only tip would be to price a TD and a manual transmission, think about the time and cost to fit them and troubleshooting any issues.
Then look at what you could get for your Patrol with the blown motor and what a second hand factory TD42 Patrol is selling for.

If you are just aiming for a factory setup, it might be less headache and more cost effective to buy one.
