You should give some thought to taking out the lift in the patrol. And doing a leaf over diff swap. She would be a different car
@mechanic74303 жыл бұрын
Any thoughts on mounting the diffs under the leaves? Would give you lift and clearance . Also when your front diff open centres and throws the power to one wheel ,try tapping the brakes and it can help even out the distribution of power to both front wheels. Kinda like man powered traction control.its saved me a few times on the muddy clay.
@michaelmcatamney92313 жыл бұрын
Mounting the diffs under the leaves would give it a massive lift and you need to extend so many things and it would be impossible to engineer and therefore be very illegal. Would be easier with stock leaves and take a leaf or 2 out to sag it a bit but then you would need a way to mount the leaves to the axle so you need fabrication to be done on the diffs

In terms of air compressors, I don't know if you guys have working ac, but you can actually convert your ac pump into an air compressor with just a few simple air line connectors, an inline oiler/moisture trap and some hoses! There's a few videos of people showing their systems off on here, might be worth a look!

Nice one boys. 👍 I too hate going through bog holes. I always avoid them, and I only go through them if there is no way around it or an alternative route. My 4WD is not a garage queen. It gets used as intended, but I do like to look after it, and I do like to keep it as clean as I can. Mud always make a mess in the engine bay of my LC80, and as you'd know it's a bugger to clean - especially bog mud. Loving the content of your channel. Keep it up. 👌

could the patrol get inverted leaf hangers? moves the leafs to the top side of the diffs and means that the only thing hanging down is essentially your u bolts. i know its a fairly common mod on the ln106 hiluxs not too sure how it handles or what geomitry it changes as i haven't personally done it but might be something worth looking into :)
@fatmanoverlanding3 жыл бұрын
I'm not familiar with Patrols (I'm a Cruiser man), but can you do a front coil conversation on the TD42, using GQ/GU Wagon components? Is that an easy mod? But whether it is or not, it's probably not a cheap mod. Another good episode gents.
