Today on The Skid Factory, Woody & Al continue work on Al's GU Patrol.
With the Body removed the ZD30 was plucked out and discarded into the bin, Al and woody then get stuck into installing a Dobinsons HD Lift kit with Hydraulic Bump Stops, Remote Res Shocks and a shock tower reinforcing kit.
The H233 Diff centres are then upgraded to a pair of Harrop E-Lockers and the 4.1:1 ratio gears are swapped for a set of 3.54:1 Gears.
Harrop do more than Lockers and Superchargers, Find out more here: www.harrop.com.au
They also have a RU-vid channel : ‪@HarropTV‬

Ignoring the whole covid thing, I can see why this has taken so long to get started Al. Some real wallet bursting parts for this build, also I knew when it came to you grafting a Cummins into the chassis you would do it right. Upgrade the frame, suspension and brakes before you apply the extra weight and power to her, nothing but respect for building things actually roadworthy. Top notch as always, roll on next week/video lol. Quick edit, will we ever get to see the other engine that you built / shipped or is that a mate who doesn't want his shit on RU-vid ?

@davenelson1571 3 года назад

Why didn't/don't you install portal axles? They'd give you more lift & gearing & keep your suspension geometry closer to stock.

@NBSV1 3 года назад

@@davenelson1571 Portals are way more money as well as a lot more work. Plus they can impart extra twisting forces so would also need the suspension redone or else it would drive weird and likely break stuff.

@davenelson1571 3 года назад

@@NBSV1 I'll agree they're not cheap, but quality parts never are, but considering how much work these guys are already doing on the diff & axles, just swapping in some complete portals would be easier and far quicker. As for the weird driving, that just has likely from a lift kit with unmatched springs & shocks or bad geometry, or being added to an already lifted body. Quality ones are very strong and breakages are very rare, just look at all the rock crawler patrols with unimog portals installed.

@theskidfactory 3 года назад

How much are Portal axels?

@Yvolve 3 года назад

Quick technical note on Al's bad mic: It is either dying from the grinding dust finding its way in, or the magnetic flux from welding is messing with the coil and magnet. For the first, a dust cap would suffice, if it's the second, Al needs to take the mic off when welding. Also, filming the welding arc directly from a short distance burns out the sensor in the camera, shortening its life. Not wanting to bitch, just trying to help to avoid gear breaking.

Probably already aware of it but I believe with the Eaton elockers it is wise to be gentle going from forwards to reverse and vice versa as they will actually unlock and relock with each change of direction, due to the way the magnet and locking ramps are setup.

Hey Fellas - I have a slightly older GU, 4.2L diesel Patrol in the same colour as yours, just put all new Pedders springs and shocks all around, and changed my Kumho MTs to Maxxis ATs ~ So much smoother and quieter now. I had a good friend's 16yo son come up and stay out bush with me for this last week, to experience bikes, guns, 4WDs etc ~ Man stuff. We had a sick time and on the day I took him down to Kalgoorlie to catch the Prospector train back to Perth, he drove us out, "L" plates up etc, but he slightly wandered 500mm onto the gravel shoulder and when I pointed it out, he freaked, locked up the breaks, overcorrected and VERY nearly rolled it (with 83yo Nanna Jill in the back too) Anyways ~ It (*JUST*) stayed on it's feet, but totally shredded my driver's side tyres ($290 each to replace once we arrived in Kal - GRRrrrr..) *I 100% reckon it would have gone over without the new suspension set up!! Straight up - Makes such a big difference! Really liking the suspension upgrades you're putting on yours - Absolute necessity!! Stay Sick, Skid Factory!

@aserta 3 года назад

Along with the bump stop area reinforcement, if we're talking that much weight, i'd seriously consider reinforcing the inside (or outside) of the front wheel arch in the chassis, because you're asking that entire area to support and stress more than the initial spec, which probably puts you about 30~40% overload (if common over building crash safety and all that jazz specs were used in building this chassis, which is likely the case). 2 or 3 mm thick plate welded on the side, should suffice. If you do, round all the corners of the reinforcement plate.
