    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.

    Been running dobinsons 3 inch for a couple of years, still with sway bars and everything. Love it. It leans a bit into corners but it doesnt ever try and leave the road. Also run a roof rack that has carried a fair bit of weight no problems.

    Do recommend.

    Drop boxes are definitely on the cards but couldn't afford them as well as everything else and I can't even afford 33s at the moment bloody rego

    I couldn't afford the drop boxes at the time, so got caster bushes and replaced the radius arm to chassis bushes, and it's fine.

    I'm not going to get into a debate about what I want and that I should do it this way (sorry to be blunt)

    I bought the kit and the only thing I didn't get was drop boxes so was wondering if the bushes were hard to change
