cheers mike

i'm goin to lok at a duel cab on monday can anyone give me a few things to check that may be or are likely to be stuffed , worn etc etc .

cheers mike

c'mon guys can anyone give me any advice on the duel cabs looks like there's a few that can flex it up what sort of suspension setup would be best to get it flexing

g'day all as u probably noticed my name sugests i have a mk patrol well i do but i have plans to make that into a hunting rig. i'm now looking at getting a lux and wanted to know ur thoughts of what one would be best i have a budget of $8000 so don't want anything to new but i want to be able to ...

yer 33's will go on without lift but u won't have much room for wheel travel

some bigger muddys would be the first thing i'd get but u will have to do a body lift or suspension lift to fit 33's and still have a bit of room for travel. also some good recovery points and if u can aford it it a winch is a very good idea weither it's a hand winch or car mounted winch. good luck ...

i am thinking of swaping my mk for a 96 navara d21 i want to know are they any good off road and wat are the bad points to look for b4 i swap

cheers mike

if ya don't have to carry much gear then a swb they are easier to drive in the bush and are lighter also u dnt need as much of a ift as lwb because of the weight factor ( ever noticed stock swb are allways higher than stock lwb??) and they are a tun o fun to drive.

cheers mike
