well hope you like

Very nice, enjoy

Friday 10th jan
Today I had a 1" suspension kit fitted I decided on the one inch as I'm only running 31's ATM so when and if I go up to 33's I might then do a body lift but still having fitted the one inch lift you can see the difference in the height happy with it I get some pics off it soon

Looks very clean and nice mate - good purchase!

cheers its a good little bus

Lovely mate, that exhaust would not last 5 min if it was on my car..... do like the look of it though!!!!

HA I had the tip left over from my sl/e so I thought well inevr got around to fitting on my commodore I just wack it on the patrol

Nice lookin rig buddy..... Wont look quite that nice when you return from Loveday hahahahaha.
Might even see you there, Oops gettin ahead of myself a bit, breaks dont come quick enough. Will be Easter when i get there, not Oz day,

Cheers thanks gave me the craps
today but

Australia Day long weekend we headed off after having to replace the starter motor arriving at Lake Bonney at around 4.30 settled in and had a quite night.
Saturday we headed out to love day for some 4x4 fun gee was it fun after spending a lot off time on the tour tracks I done the hill climb and then went and played in the sand for a bit .
After stopping off at the tavern for a drink we then went out to the play ground got really muddy then managed to get stuck on the tyre tracks with all 4 wheels off the ground had to be pulled out.
Had a great time got dirty was a blast.
Sunday I drove around lake Bonney and found a few 4x4 tracks which even had some decent climbs.
Great weekend had the old gq went really well without any dramas can't wait to go away again.
Will post pics during the week cheers Garth

here is some pics from when I came back from love day

plane are now to paint complete drivers side and the silver on the passengers side to clean up the dents that piss me off

Nice ride you have there, I'd be cutting the cow catcher off the front bar it'll only get you hung up
or look around for a 2nd hand ARB or similar. Did they only make one colour GQ ???? IMO
a 2" lift, nice and soft with 285's or 33"s, you'll be nearly unstoppable

hey threedogs I took your advise and cut the lower section off on sat looks better gave it more height too

G'evening Y60patrol,

My first patrol i purchased in 1998 was identical to yours.

PS, The GQ's are a great bit of kit!

Regards,

RLI

yer cheers it's been a fun bus more plans and mods to come
