    G'day all :)

    G'day all, Names Ethan.

    Recently bought myself a 98 Y61 GU DX 2.8 Turbo Diesel Patrol, Its my first patrol as ive come from the other side of the camp, Owned an 04 3.0 TD Hilux before getting this patrol, It was an alright vehicle but offroad so far the patrol has stomped it to the floor, On road ill have to say my Hilux did better but oh well Im happy

    Its pretty stock atm, When i bought it she came with a TJM Steel winch Bullbar with brush bars and a 3' Lift and an Airtec snorkel

    so far ive installed a Sony Double din, Aerial and radio to go with it so i can annoy truckies on channel 40 , got a set of 15' Sunnies and 33' Maxxis Bighorns on order hopefully getting them put on my beast during the week so i cant wait to see what a transformation it does

    Future mods would be

    Dobinsons 5' Flexy Coils
    Super Flex arms
    All suspension upgraded to suit the 5' lift
    XGT spotties/40' Lightbar
    Roof racks and full length basket (Possibly making my own roof rack)
    Fabricating my own rear wheel hi lift carrier till ive got myself the roof rack
    3' Mandrel bent straight through pipe
    Roof console

    Im trying to set my rig up to be a capable offroad machine aswell as a comfortable tourer so half half
