    Mud runner, I also have 2 uhfs, plus a handheld just in case, and ill pinch a sand(mine) flag from work,oops borrow.
    140lts for the shower can be left at home mate. you really wont need it. to be honest Baby Wipes will get it done. if you really want one then there is No Standing under a shower in the desert. my son and i had a shower each when we did the Madigan in 2012 and used 4lt between us. 140kgs of excess Weight is unnecessary.

    190lt is HEAPS. leave the 60lts at home. maybe take 1 of those 10lt on the roof if your really worried but you wont use anywhere near that.
    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.
