I have been enjoying reading people's build threads lately so I figured I would do my own. I bought my Patrol about 6 years ago and it was a fairly standard '95 TD42 with 350,000kms with a safari turbo kit, front mount intercooler and a long range tank.
Not long after I bought it if fitted a 2in body lift, 2in suspension lift and some 33in Baja Claws. This was my first trip to cruiser park:
Not long after that I upgrade to 5in lift and regular cruiser park trips resulted in the beginnings of panel damage and I realized the factory side steps were kinda useless.
So some protection was needed, I built myself a tube bullbar, chopped the rear quarters and built a rear bar and bought some sliders nice and cheap.
I also got a small roof basket, some spot lights and a set of 34" Jungle Trekkers. Around this time my claws wore out so I got some 35" Micky Thompson FCII's. The bigger tyres needed a bit more power so off to get a dyno tune and add a bit more boost, up to 12psi. 122HP on 35s.
Not long after I bought a Sierra play truck and car trailer so work on the Patrol slowed for a while.
