I am new to the Patrols i am a former rover lover but lost that love very quickly when i purchased my new patrol. i just fitted an ARB Bull bar and winch. now it has a rattel in the rear inside of my car when i hit a bumb,

would this have anything to do with the standard rear shocks being fully not able to take the upward travel because ther is so much wait in the front.

i am planning to do a 5 inch lift in a month or so! does anyone have any advice for me i want it to still handel city driving but be hard core off road.

thaks :lol:

when you say NEW, you mean GU new or New to you GQ??

5inch lift on GU should fit 38's.. 3inch fits 36's...

Also underground carparks are a thing of the past then. Depending on what tires you run...

does anyone have any advice for me i want it to still handel city driving but be hard core off road.


Leave it standardish and get a second car for a basher... Good luck gettin engineers and insurance for 5inch lift anymore.
