    Lol. That was Glen Thomas who's said that though. He is a Navi in Outback Challenge and Cliffhanger and Vic Winch Challenges. His daily is a beast. Great guy. Easy for Glen is not necessarily Easy for you. He has his head around it well and truly.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    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.

    It is definitely driveable, as I picked out a line and was on my way up, but it is definitely not easy ......

    Gotta be prepared for body damage though ..... a few months back when we were there, we were at the bottom going up, and I was not leading the trip and most of our guys were going up the chicken tracks up the side and were still a little undecided in the dry and I ended up on my lonesome as no-one else was prepared to give it a go ...... we all have daily drivers so i totally understand, and even though I use my truck for what it is designed for, i always cry at any damage
