Have you got the dread 80k wobbles now Steve. That comes free with every lift in a Patrol... :) Nice looking rig too mate.

Gotta be quick at work. My snorkel was genuine too. My bbar was an orig nissan when i bought the rig. Yours looks heaps tougher. 2 x things were done at arb. Workmanship was dissapointing. But ill see how i go personally in future. Just filled up at 4999 ks so ill tell ya me ks average shortly. Very nice unit mate. Looks great

Cheers
Dave

Thanks Hodge , iam pretty happy with it , few more things to re fit from the old nag , mostly electronic stuff and the winch

Hi Mudski, no wobbles at all ,although i decided to fit 265x70x17 tires instead of the 285's most people fit or larger , maybe thats it , don't know , having said that , i would probably got the 285's if i had done the lift first , happy so far , and thanks , getting there , although the outside won't change much now,

ohhh i had adjustable caster bushes fitted with the lift if that makes any diff

Thanks Dave , yes ARB stuff is a bit hit n miss these days , quality has gone to the dogs , chasing the almighty dollar

just checked fuel ratio and back up to 12.42, i remember doing the hume hwy a few weeks back so its pretty much the same as it was 2 months ago.

cheers Dave

pm me anytime you wanna compare or check anything mate ok, ill do same

My GU turned into a real dog, until I found the vacuum line to the turbo lifter was split--could be yours is simply off. Easy check

All fixed now Dr Gary and very happy
