    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.

    Hit that with a belt sander now mate.

    As discussed earlier in the thread the deformation of your sill meant that cutting it out and replacing it with a new section was a good call. What you have done is a compromise and that's fine mate, I made the same compromise on my GQ.

    That little spot welder is SENSATIONAL!!!!

    had no option, rang around a few wreckers and told them what I was after and they said they would go and check, but no one got back to me, so had to make do with what I got here.... Now to chase a belt sander...

    Must be the time of year , only small damage , but enough to catch the corner of the door , also found that the brackets for 3 of the flair clips were non existent . So shaped a few bits of pine , glued to the flair , and stainless screwed from behind 1399111690600.jpg1399111719398.jpg1399111719398.jpg1399111812642.jpg
