    Yeah i feel it dont worry about that mate. It has taken me 11 years to get my GQ to the current build and my 35" Simex Centipedes need to be replaced with 37" Treps if i am serious about this type of driving. Big Bux and will have to wait a while.

    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.

    Well Winne came down the HWY on Saturday and we stripped out the second Alternator off his TD. We stripped off all the brackets and thermostat housing off my TD to revert Winnie's back to standard. All bolted up and Winnie is as good as new.

    Winnie is a Generous guy!! He gifted me the dual setup and I sincerely appreciate it. Thanks bloke.

    So my plan is to source a 24v alternator with the same mounts and setup an independent 24v system for the winch. Batteries in the rear footwells and loose the second battery under the bonnet and fit a bigger air of and stainless snorkel. Will be a while but that's the plan.

    While removing the thermostat housing I broke the rear bolt damn it!! Winnie I drilled and tapped it yesterday and fitted an M10 Helicoil and jobs right. Power steering pump fitted and fan removed for further inspection and maybe I will buy another I think. She looks pretty average.

    Hi mate,

    yeah i tapped out that Thermostat and that went on fine. Bolted up the PS pump and the kids took me away so thats as far as i got mate. Poor buggers battled on alone on Saturday so i had to make good Sunday LOL.

    The Bracket is in place and ready for the alternator so may look around and see if i can find a 24v that is going to match the mounts and do the job once. Thanks again mate.

    G'day Darren,

    Thanks for the diffs mate!

    They are still siting on my bench top in my garage. Unfortunately, I have been unable to work on my poor Patrol for the last 4 months.

    Kind regards,

    Paul
