Hi guys,
Thought I'd make a build thread, a little history.....
Bought the truck in Feb 2011 for $6500
Nissan Safari Grandroad 1992 GQ
TD42 Non turbo diesel
Manual
330k on the clock
Came already with,
Steel bull bar
31x1050 on 15" white spoke rims
Steel snorkel
UHF radio
Spot lights
Work done so far,
clutch
Wheel bearings
Engine mounts
Starter motor
Alternator
Batteries
Head lights
Tyre Flares
Stereo
And the usual maintenance stuff, oils, filters, belts re grease etc and probabley a few other things.
Future mods (dreams)
4"inch suspension lift - next month fingers crossed
35" muddies
New bar work, front, sides and rear
Diff guards
Rock sliders
Under body bash plates
Winch
Diff lockers
3" exhaust
Spotties
From there I'd like to do some touch ups and future proofing then finally an engine rebuild so I can chuck a turbo on her. I'd like to think I'll have one tough truck then lol
Piccies to follow of her being how I bought it so you can see the gradual progress
Cheers and beers Brett
