You can buy extended bolt kits for about $80 from PAP. Are you looking for something stiffer? KMAC/Peddars/Superior probably have something.
Will definitely have to upgrade thanks Philstar, don’t think it will achieve as much as Daz’s Flexmonster though [emoji23][emoji106][emoji106]

Thread Dig!!! LOL.
Been a while.
Last time the big girl was out was thr West Coast of Tassie where it performed exactly how I designed it to work. Bloody love this car.
Every piece of bar work was lent on and scraped. Last weekend I rubbed it all back and gave it another coat of Satin Black with a brush ans it came up like new. Fresh.
Soooooo. $1000 Tk took a swipe at me. Dented the front passenger Door so decided a replacement was the easiest way to fix it. Sourced another door off FB Marketplace for $100 and stripped it down of all mechanisms etc and patched a couple od small dents and got it ready for paint.

Found all the paint left over from the last spray and sourced some more.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2022/06/85.jpg
Had a couple of dings in the paint around the place and also after getting rained on on paint day pre paint my re-prep ready for paint missed the welds on the roof sliders and I have had a little surface rust bleed there which has pissed me off.

Watch out for the door adjustment so it doesn´t pinch the fender at the bottom.
Yeah they are a bit of a bugger for that. Adjustment is a bit of a bugger too damn it, it seems to adjust I have to adjust the fixing to the Body, not the door. These are behind the quarter panel damn it, I didn't want to have to take that off. The flare is bolted to the Quarter And the Barwork, taking that quarter off would be a mission. It's out slightly but I think I can work with it.Quote:

So after the failure of my High Country trip the GQ is in the dog house. I'm showing it a little love though and sorting out the cooling system. I really should have dealt with it after Tassie but didn't. Although I only got as far as the freeway the other week I noted it was already running a little warm.
So the Radiator has been pulled out and hosed out with purpose today to remove more mud than I could see. I will give it a coat of paint before putting it back in.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...022/07/210.jpg
Embarrassing I know.... I really should have pulled that out when I got back from Tassie. SLACK.
Interesting though, when I put it back in the shed and walked away when I got home I notices coolant on the floor of the shed in a couple of spots? I also noted there seemed to be some seeping leakage around the front top of the motor and decided I needed to inspect the thermostat and the Water Pump.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...022/07/211.jpg
When I was in Tassie a couple of years ago in the GUIV I had a Waterpump failure in Zeehan, I fitted a brand new waterpump then to finish that trip but then pulled it out to fit a JPC hi output one when I got back. I had a brand new waterpump sitting there so not a bad call.
I removed the waterpump and noted there was some shift play which made pulling it off a good call.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...022/07/212.jpg
So i had to harvest the studs from the old one for thr new one.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...022/07/213.jpg
The viscous coupling seemed a little tight so I pulled it apart to inspect and it looked OK. When I got back from Tassie in the GUIV I also installed a Quikazz Fan and Hub with the waterpump. The old one off the GU has the upgraded infinity Fan and I will fit the GU Hub and Fan to the GQ.
The Thermostat I pulled out was a 77 degree and on the advice of MB in his thread I will chase up an 88c one to fit in.

So for anyone interested too, here is a pic of the dual Alternators set up for 12v and 24v.
12v on the passenger side (factory fitted)
24v off the Power Steering belt. Tidy.

And I have to say, this mod is a bloody winner. I installed thisnLED strip lighting a few years ago and just put clamps on yhe ends. They just tuck down beside the battery when not in use, no need for a switch or relay.
Whether out bush at night or in the shed you xant have too much light.

Hey Daz, how have you done this? Have you just hooked the 2nd alternator's 0v / earth, up to 12v to give you a 24v out of that 2nd alternator? ie; 2 alt's in series???Quote:

The car only has 1 12v battery, no second 12v battery. 12v is used for lights and compressors only.Quote:
