    So, did anyone come home and think "God I wish I didn't have/use XX piece of gear?"

    Any lesson's learned or bits of kit that proved unworthy? Tyre reports? Awning failures? Bolt holes in the vehicle body that need covering up to stop the dust, etc. etc.?
    Between Patrols ATM. Had a beaut GU with 6.5 Chev TD. Next is a GU ute with a 4.5 litre Cummins conversion and a camper on the back.

    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.

    That one was truly shocking and could have been dangerous if not spotted. No fault of the product or the installation, but those corrugations are ruthless!!!!

    Tyre report. This was my first trip on the new KM2s in a 33 and they were awesome, handled everything perfectly. Great on bitumen, great on gravel, great on sand, great on dirt. The only thing we didn't try was mud!
    You could have covered every single little hole and dust would still have made its way in. I spent about 5 hours getting the dust out of my car today and the interior is in showroom condition
