New GU a bit of a slug ?

[mudski]

Howdy Smoothrun , no my snorkel is genuine Nissan , no noises or rattles , very happy now that's sorted out and it goes well , using around 13.5 litres per hundred at the moment , but only done 1300 ks , I have one small issue , which is a wheel alignment , but the bloody suspension place should have done it when I got the springs fitted , well lesson learned there , but all in all iam very happy ill keep intouch as its good to know people with the same age newbies

cheers Steve

Have you got the dread 80k wobbles now Steve. That comes free with every lift in a Patrol... Nice looking rig too mate.

[Smoothrun]

Gotta be quick at work. My snorkel was genuine too. My bbar was an orig nissan when i bought the rig. Yours looks heaps tougher. 2 x things were done at arb. Workmanship was dissapointing. But ill see how i go personally in future. Just filled up at 4999 ks so ill tell ya me ks average shortly. Very nice unit mate. Looks great

Cheers
Dave

Thanks Hodge , iam pretty happy with it , few more things to re fit from the old nag , mostly electronic stuff and the winch

[old steve]

Hi Mudski, no wobbles at all ,although i decided to fit 265x70x17 tires instead of the 285's most people fit or larger , maybe thats it , don't know , having said that , i would probably got the 285's if i had done the lift first , happy so far , and thanks , getting there , although the outside won't change much now,

ohhh i had adjustable caster bushes fitted with the lift if that makes any diff

[old steve]

Thanks Dave , yes ARB stuff is a bit hit n miss these days , quality has gone to the dogs , chasing the almighty dollar

My GU turned into a real dog, until I found the vacuum line to the turbo lifter was split--could be yours is simply off. Easy check

[old steve]

All fixed now Dr Gary and very happy
