Fatboys Patrol
Re: Fatboys Patrol
Hi Fatboy,the truck has now done 1500 klm on the road and a little off road as the service truck for Madaz at the Taupo Round of the whinch challenge and is running fine. It has 2 brand new ARB diff locks and a set of 4.6 diffs in it now so it is starting to come to gether . I have just cut more out of the rear guard as there was a small but interesting issue off road with some 35" tyre clearence , the only thing left to do is to give it a new coat of paint so we can make it look pretty. The tyes are Simexes 35" x 11.50" on 10" wide bead locks .

Was just saying that it looked funny......not suggesting it did not haul ass!
Not many other v8's have the plenum twisted 90 degree's!

Re: Fatboys Patrol
Fatboy here,Thanks to Madaz for some pictures, yes it does indeed haul arse, but i havr to admit it sure drinks some petrol sincr the 4.6 diffs have been put in,but it sure has some torque.
