    3L or 4.2?

    Hi. I was wondering what is better a new 3L common rail or a 2006 4.2?

    I bought a 2012 3L and was wondering how to install drawers

    The type of drawers are outback.

    My drawers were from my previous patrol and the holes don't line up.

    Also how do I install a duel battery

    The brand I have is a red arc

    I'm not sure where I should put the solenoid

    I chose a place for the solenoid but the my drill is too big to screw it into place and suggestions on where to pit it

    It is meant to say put

    When buying lights bar light or spotties

    I chose a light bar for the rear of my car but should I get light force spotties for the front

    I've got some lightforce spotties on the roof rack

    I decided to choose spotties on the front

    It is meant to say bar

    Arb bull bar

    Arb bullbat?

    The deluxe winch bar I am thinking of

    The winch bar is worth $1700 is this right

    That's what I was thinking but I went with a 3.0l as it was newer and I wasn't going to be towing much

    I bought a new 3 litre the other week and went and got prices. The arb bull bar was $1700 before powder coating.

    I bought the patrol a few weeks ago and it been a headache. The red arc system wasn't going to plan. The bull bar is more expensive than I thought.

    I'm from India. Just moved to Australia t months ago

    Sorry. It meant to saw two

    If you do a search on those subjects you should find all the answers you need mate. Regarding the 3L/4.2 I would personally get the 4.2 as I eventually want a camper trailer and the 4.2 would tow it so much easier also wont hurt as much the first few bush pin stripes

    Hey mate how's it going? Are you trying to get your post count up?? Lol.
    Anyway id personally go an older 4.2 diesel rather than a newer 3lt.
    Really hope your not just trying to get your post count up for the manual

    He is just spamming to get the manual mate,

    You have been warned, any more and you will get banned k.read13

    How about starting afresh and stopping over at the intro section and telling us a bit about yourself and your rig

    Cheers

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Hey mate, where are you from??

    You will not get away with posting crap on this forum mate as you probably already realised. Post a few sensible posts and you will be fine.

    Welcome by the way
