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.

I wonder if it works as well if it is applied on the exterior of the floor pan? It would also protect from stone damage as well.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.
Found this quite interesting.

Well as some of you might have seen I have received my gear to carry out this project.
And you may have seen I didn't get brand name.
I did a lot of research and found 2 very well priced suppliers.
First up is the butyl sheets.
Dynamat is roughly from $200-300 for 3.5m2, and there are a few others which are a little cheaper, but this deal is awesome.
The bloke depot do 4.5m2 for $150..
Now it is blank.. No name. But I can confirm it is butyl and not bitumen.
It is 2mm think, like the dynamat.
So in my eyes Its a winner..
And the big one. The foam.
After finding the waterproof foam from body builders I knew what I was looking for. And after digging I found this supplier of what I think is exactly if not a little better than the expensive.
Just a few pics

Now the cheaper stuff has an alloy top for extra heat resistance which is good, and that final pic looks a little rough due to a blunt knife.
So the foam from body builders is $55+ postage for 1.8m2.
The bulk roll, 10m2, well the price said $200, I went in at $185 and got it..
So heeeaaaappppsssss cheaper.
So if yea. Pretty much shop around guys.
Sorry parksy, I should have said something but I didn't want to recommend anything before seeing it myself.

All good westy, thanks for finding these products. I still need to do the roof of the patrol, might have to invest in this stuff.
Was it an online purchase?
