    Now to the rear bar...........

    I have decided I don't want to risk making a centre recovery point again so I have fitted the H&R tow at off the GUIV to the GQ.

    THIS IS NOT A DIRECT BOLT UP!

    The GQ tow bar bolts to the side of the chassis rail with 2 bolts. The GU tow bar bolts up under the chassis with 3 bolts..... I can make that work!!



    I used so angle I had to weld nuts to to use inside the chassis rails.

    First I drilled the holes in the angle and bolted it to the tow bar then welded the nuts in place.









    Then I did some panel beating to my long range tank that has taken some BIG Hits!! Nothing a sledge hammer couldn't sort out.







    Panel beating done.

    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.
    WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
