Awesome video I have few G60’s they are a awesome vehicle. Certainly make off reading more interesting than a modern day 4WD. Look forward to seeing the build come along
Glad you became aware of the error in drilling out the spot welds. Too difficult to weld on the replacement panels when you have a hole to fill on the back side. Thanks for the video.
Wanted a Gq when I was little, get one when I can to find out every p plater and there brother has one. Need something different while maintaining strength and ability of a solid axle patrol, I think a g60 body swap or a square body Pajero on a Gq chassis would be ideal snd different for once.
Been looking forward to this update. I’m hoping to do something similar with my 1967 L60 and first generation Nissan Xterra here in Canada. The 60 series patrols are rarer than hen’s teeth here so there is motivation to keep it original but the fact that their parts are unobtanium has me really interested in the swap.
Ive finished a similar build but using toyota gear. fun part was grafting a 75 series firewall, floor and dash into a 55 series body. worth the effort!
hey mate loving the build so far. Shed q if I may - I'm researching now as getting a new one for similar purposes and my little channel - did you need any extra bracing or anything for your roof winches? I'm keen to do something to similar to be able to winch off the roof topper and store up there then just winch down when going on a trip. Cheers fellas 👍
Thanks mate, as far as the engineering for the hoists..... There is none. I'm 100% in trust with this setup but it is by no means engineered. The winches cut out before it comes even close to dangerous.
@@SIDETRACKED ok sweet good to know. I figured most big sheds should be fine. Not planning on lifting the dmax up or anything lol but was figuring a RTT should be ok
Love your videos but I can't help myself with this, please call them mud guards, not phenders, this is Aus. Im on the wrong side of 60 and have only known them as mud guards, internet comes along and people are talking American, technically it may be right but it isn't Aussie, my opinion
Love the safety squint while drilling mate😂😂
Can't wait for the next episode
Good call on the new body, the white one wasn’t worth fixing
Awesome video

There will be plenty more mistakes, huge learning curve for me

Great progress! This is really a great project.

There's a green Nissan body that might work. Had a few hard miles though!
what size is the shed mate, sweet set up!
drop everything your doing for the channel and spend the time on this, its way better content..
Would steer clear off using raptor on the chassis
What's the reason behind this?
@@SIDETRACKED Raptor chips and cracks and also forms rust underneath. Looks terrible in my opinion, nothing better than sandblasted and 2pac.
One ugly shitheap into even uglier shitheap
