You will want the 4.6s for sure with the 37s the thing will be a slug otherwise. on the road tyres it will get up and go too.

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 reckon you would be better of using ratios suited to the 33's and putting in transfer gears. 4.6's will still be to fast for 37's offroad.
I agree, transfer gears would be awesome with the Auto.
I did a drive about 10 years ago with a guy that had a GQTD42T with a factory Auto, grey Import model i think, i remember doing a big hill decent and could not believe how much he was on his brakes! I commented without knowing he was in an auto, the auto ran on a heap. reduction gears would sort that out with the big tyres for sure.

Nah but assuming it would be 5g to send it to someone to pull out and install a setup. However ill source parts out myself instead of mechanic doing that. I know shifts would be out so a computer etc would have to be the pain I was just thinking zd30 auto would be a bit stronger as its newer
IF ITS NOT BROKEN IT MUST BE A PATROL
Maybe you should fix Jason up his $2000 first before fitting big tyres
