In this video I give a brief rundown on the setup of the patrol, mainly my old tray/canopy and how its all been done on a budget. Feel free to ask any questions and let me know if you wanna see videos of the new setup being made!
Great build mate. Well done with the fb marketplace deals! JRP gauges are great value for sure. Just wondering where u plumbed the water temp sender? Nothing compares to a coil cab td42, with a few mods. Once u get her tuned it’ll be a different rig again. My next mission is reduction gears. I’m saving up now 🤣. Cheers 👍🎯🍻
Thank you man! Appreciate the comment! I plumbed It into one of the ports on the passenger side of the engine just below the thermostat housing. There's ports on the housing itself but from memory it's important to go below it as that gives a more accurate reading. Hope that helps
Hey mate, yeah the dx/st is more to do with interior and stuff. ST models just have a nicer more fancy interior like electric windows, individual more comfy seats, centre console e.t.c. but both coiled and leafs came out in dx and ST
@@isaacplace9093 yeah bloody oath, Ik it’s a zd but from research they can go well as long as you sort of the egr and boost, more or less I plan to borrow some of ur 💡 ideas but make it suit my future apprenticeship needs cheers
@notmkr-busta2937 You should be fine mate! From what I've heard the CRDs don't have as many issues as the di models did. Still take your precautions and change what's necessary but apart from that they're still a bloody good motor!
@@isaacplace9093 cheers dude yeah so far I’m thinking bigger intercooler, egr block/delete and a manual boost controller should be right from there. Gotta also figure out if I wanna go coil or leaf, Ik coils r always better for 4wd but I don’t know if the 10k difference is really worth it especially if it’s going to be a work Ute well
@notmkr-busta2937 Honestly I don't think the coil rear is all that important. That 10k can be used in so many ways so I wouldn't stress about tryna get one. Plus leafs have a higher gvm and spread the load across the rear of the chassis much better. You can also coil convert them for not that much in the future if you find yourself really wanting it. Turns out a lot stronger than the factory coil setup is!
