So another of those "gettin ta know ya" threads lol

So what have you done to your patrol today?


Well today I fitted my airhorns, changed the rear brake pads and cleaned up the winch wiring so as not to spray sparks across the grill when in use :lol:

I think my rear brakes have not been working for some time :lol:

:iconbana:

dropped my alternator while trying to fix the pulley, breaking an arm off it so i can't mount it back in

anyone have a GQ or VL 3ltr Alternator (Both the same) i can buy?????

I looked out the window at mine and thought to myself i should load up the camper and GU and go away for a couple of days , but then a mate came over and we had a couple of bundy's so that was the end of that idea

 

[rumcajs]

Finally installed extra mesh on the snorkel to stop bugs clogging up the air cleaner, cut to size and extra holes in the rubber mat I had for ages in the cargo/boot so I can tie the fridge down and to reward myself for all that effort I've cracked open the 5L Heineken keg :grin: I was given before Xmass for a extra effort I put in for some bloke to get him out of trouble. :cheers:

Driver's door wouldn't open from inside. Took the panel off and found that the plastic guide arm had collapsed. Made a new one from a bit of brass and now all is perfect again. Plastic doesn't last forever...hope the brass will.

Carried new superior comp spec draglink and tie rod up to shed, was meaning to put them on but went to sleep instead. Long few weeks at work.

Looked at how I can chop the rear tie down points of in prep for putting on my second 3" SS exhaust ip, then looked at the welder and saw its got sweet FA gas left, damn. Now need to go to BOC for another bottle.

Today I did my airbox lid mod, tried using 90mm but ended up with 75mm.
took all the belts off and fixed both adjusters that were seized.
Cleaned up some wirering and hoses.
Tomorrow give it a good clean and check all wheel bearings.

cheers.

 

[BonesGU]

Did some work on my sliders and looked at the springs on the floor but the air con dragged me inside it was too dam hot in the garage

 

[SHANE 3.0]

Drove it to Work, too farking hot 41oC to work on it oh checked tyre pressures

 

[dbsep]

Got my wife to drop at the car cleaners to have carpet's washed and the leather seats treated. As I haven’t been in it since Dec last year and I guess it could do with spring clean and freshen up. Home in May thank god. Good point must order 4 new tires for the old girl.

 

[jackd]

Cleaned out the inside and tidied the rear drawers, finally, after the move. Gotta sort the garage so I can start some more work on it, troll that is.

 

[Whitey]

Nothing but enjoy the ZD30 reliability.

 

[Smokey2.8]

Too bloody hot, but managed to add extra silicon oil to clutch fan and brake a bolt under the bonnet to for my effort.
42c+ looked at trol after that and said fk it and went in doors to enjoy a/c and a few beers!!!

 

[GUTourer]

Yet again looked at the fibreglass flares I bought 3 years ago in the shed ...... looked at the the troll ... looked at the flares ..... went to the fridge, cracked a beer sat and looked at the 35" tyres overhanging the body ....... had another beer. Went inside.

 

[Bsben]

cracked the head of my ZD30. yeah

 

[Nissan Kid]

Parked it in the driveway at my mates place......then it rained quite a bit......now his driveway is very dirty

 

[parscheese]

I drove mine!

I have a work vehicle now so I make sure the Patrol gets driven once a week.

It's been my observation that vehicles seem to deteriorate more through lack of use compared to regular occasional use.

Some say I should sell the Patrol cause I'm still paying it off, but I don't think I could part with it unless I really had too.

Cheers
