Fixed mate....
Similar setup to what All 4 adventure have... except a much more extravagant version!!
2005 TD42TI
No, that's a 79 series, which is dual cab. Manual turbo 5 speed 4.5 v8 diesel.
The buggy pic is a 200 series with a rear quarter chop. 6 speed Auto 4.5l v8 diesel with twin turbo.
(I saw a video of the 79 series with an aftermarket auto box. The video was by marks 4x4 adapters. The auto box was $17k installed, with engineering. Although the Ute was probably chipped with exhaust, it is probably a good mod)
They should get something better to tow the trailer! 200's are damn ugly!
They don't have a unique grenade issue. At least they can tow...

You are right "Marks" have an auto conversion for the V8 70 series
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
They just have a bad habit of consuming oil and also a injector pump costs $20k!
GQ highmount, lockers, barwork, 3-Link front, long arms, V8, cage, duct tape, cable ties and 35's

Pics of Forum trips I've Been on:

WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
Fuel consumption in the 11s. Oil usage just about sorted (a lot of it comes out the pcv, and a baffle plate can be installed. The same injector issues could afflict any card diesel.
Do I detect a small amount of disbelief on this forum that a manufacturer other than nissan could actually build a tow vehicle that would come close or surpass?
speaking with a mate of mine a few days ago, and they've just gone and done something similar to a clients 200 at their work........ brand spanking new, chopped the back end off, increased the chassis length by 1.5m and added a third axle. So 80odd K for the new yota, extra 25k for the conversion, it beggars belief.
