G'Day and welcome to the forum mate

Welcome mate. Tough looking zuk..
Are these busses fitted with snorkels?
It is a down fall having the air pick up in the front corner so where these guys go is like bull dust tracks so yea that looks pretty normal.

If not fitted with a snorkel, fit them out.. turn the head backwards too as it does greatly reduce dirt intake if in a convoy.

Tuff looking hiab to for a Ute.. keep em coming though..

Welcome,
Nice truck, but you need to put Lexus 4.6 engine like a lot of the guys here do - goes anywhere after that

Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.
Enjoy the sights and sounds of the greatest show on earth.

I have Dan from KPD4x4 coming up to visit us today to try and sell my boss the performance chips for the ZD30 patrols. Im also looking into a different bushing system for the rear leaves as with the weight in the utes they urethan bushes flog out way to quickly.

You want to make a bet?? They will flog out in 2/10th of f/all with all that weight on the back. We have an idea for replacement bushes that I will share once I have the engineer design and price it

I reckon some nice steel bushes will do the trick or even weld up the ends........it will last forever...lol

Not much option apart from heavy duty poly with that much weight.
