Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi,
I have a patrol 160, 1980-model 4,0L, with chassis-nr 600060. So the info in the first posting can't be correct.


helppp me..........
I have put axles from a 3.3 litres turbo-diesel with ARB on the car. I need lower gear because the car isn't strong enough with 39" irok to drive in rock crawling competition.

Preferably something cheap.

the gearing you have is as good as its going to get until you spend big money mate...

no cheap way around it, you cant get gears for the diff or the transfercase for MQ / MK.... its all custom work from here on in

and + - price???

hope somebody can help me,,,,,

cant get them mate, not made, there is no room in the T case for them, as i said, nothing is made for MQ/MK you need to put a completely different gearbox in if you want gearing.....

jUST wondering if there is anything about mk utes in your book. I understand there were higher than mq utes. Was the difference due to tires or did they use different springs. Understand there might have been a suspension upgrade in 1985. Can you confirm this?

I will try and check the parts book(s) sometime today and get back with ya.

Good day to you kind sirs and sir-esses.....

I'm a noob, OK.

Done some searching over the last few days and can't find what I'm looking for......................

What the %*^k is my truck???

VSK0KY260U0487106.

TY260.

RD28 Turbo.

It's a shortarse with leaves and a plastic roof. 5 speed. 5 seater.

Does this ring any bells.

I need a manual and parts list.

Any info would be appreciated.

Hey Screwy,

Thanks for the reply.

I just found out from another guy on this forum that it's an EBRO.

Spanish built bastard son of the 160. Quite a few differences as far as
axles and springs are concerned. At least I can work out what's compatible.

By the way, EBRO also built the Commando which was basically an army Jeep with a Perkins donk.

Cheers,

Rinse.

Greetings:
Chassis number is K160 657659.

Any possibility that it's in your book? Any info would be wonderful.

thanks ... diana
