Outer Limits 4x4 Board

IN THE PROCESS OF LOOKING AT BUYING A GU PATROL UTE
I HAVE A OWNED A GQ (WAGON) AND DIDNT REALLY HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT PLUS I SOUGHTA NEW MY WAY AROUND IT WITH MATES HAVING THEM AS WELL UD ALWAYS BE SUSSING EACH OTHERS OUT, BASICALLY ALL IM ASKING IS WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR IVE HERD THAT THEY HAVE TURBO PROBLEMS ANY FEEDBACK ON ANYTHING YOU NO WOULD BE GREAT HELP ,QUESTIONS TO ASK THE OWNER WHEN LOOKING AT IT THINGS LIKE THAT

CHEERS KODIE

Look for the same things as a gq, they are essentially the same.

- Get one with a TD42 (or TD42T) engine, not a ZD30
- Unless you plan on load carrying, get coils in the rear
- They come in ST or DX specs, make sure you get the one that suits YOU best
- Try to find one with a proper service history, not "Yeah, i get my mates brother Johnno to service it all the time"
- Wheel bearings and front swivel hubs should be checked (costs $$$)
- Check panhard/radius/rear arm bushes (its expensive to have to replace all of these)
- Check the clutch for good action/grab, and check the fork boot
- Check that the sills havent been bashed in from 4x4ing
- Do a look over the complete undercarriage an drivetrain for any sign of offroad abuse
- Check brake pads for wear, check the shockers too.

Finally, take it for a GOOD test drive, in town, on the freeway, load it going up some decent hills etc.
