    Piece of cake mate.....fits no probs under the hood of my TB42. Mind you, I don't have mine on gas so I don't know if that causes a problem.
    As BA said though, it takes about an hour to do. Maximum. Especially if there are a few helping out doing different bits if the job.

    Yep you only get fire from wiring when you get a dead short. Drongos it is mate.

    If your putting a battery inside your cab then it should be a sealed Gel battery only which can be mounted upside down if you like and no spill risk and no fumes while its charging.

    I'm thinking of putting 2 batteries inside the cab of the GQ to run a 24v setup for the winch. Do it right and there is no problem.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    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.
