New to the Patrol game!

Hi guys my name's Salim and I've just purchased my first Patrol (2008 DX).
This is my first 4x4 so excuse my ignorance when I ask questions lol!

I'm from Sydney (Villawood) and have purchased it mostly for fishing trips and maybe some light off road adventures.

Hello and welcome to the forum, ask away no silly questions here.
any pics of the Beast?? most of all enjoy

Thanks mate!
Yep I've attached a couple from when I purchased it but I'm yet to take some better photos.

start a build thread in Members Ride section then we all as well as your self follow
you build. to easy, personally I fit that lightbar under the bull bar to keep you safe from Mr P Plod
Sit very well IMO great set up, you must be happy
Get some Bunnings garden edge and fashion some flares to cover the tyres
not a big cost or buy some OE flares from a ST or similar
What is the size of those tyres???

Yeah will do mate for sure.
I might source some from an ST later down the track I'll see what I can find.
They're 33s according to the previous owner :smile:

No idea lol! I haven't actually had a chance to take a proper look after buying it yet :'( it's at the mechanic's at the moment getting the clutch replaced.. Hoping to get it back this arvo!

Which style clutch are they fitting

I've been told it depends whether it's a dual or single mass clutch? If it's single then they'll just replace but if it's dual it's better to do a conversion of some sort.
Can't remember exactly what they said but the conversion (if needed) is going to be much more expensive so I'm hoping it's just the single.

For sure a expensive exersise for any clutch job
Im loving my auto just had it serviced very happy.

Welcome to the forum mate and feel free to ask any questions.
