See there go putting words into my mouth again.

. It was the bitumen that did the damage to mine. It was because of the detroit that mine did it alot more than others. But still, my mates and a few others I spoke to did the same thing in stock form. I thought a bent house may have been the case, so I got another 1. But nope
And each to their own about coils vs leafs. The gq's must be rough as guts then

. But, a reverse shackle set up makes a huge difference to leafs.

Sometimes its as simple as buying apples..... some are good and some just arnt but you dont know till you bite into it.
You could buy 3 trucks all new and 1 will have some problems wont it, but if you can sort it out alls good but then sometimes for whatever reason it simly wont fix & it pisses you off untill you get rid of it...
I Feel so dirty.........

Probably not going from a hilux. But if he drove an 80 I think he would be.
I would have bought a td 80 if it was me and had chopped into a ute. easy to do for well under 20g

(nevs comment was from me, i was on his computer) yes but then you need to find someone to do the chop, and all the bullshit that goes with it... i love cruisers, they look better, go better, etc. but patrol are just easier to get shit for in aus. they are cheaper to mod (except for drivetrain)
