Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

The first photo seems to be a standard steel rim. The other seem to be the standard series 1/2 alloy rims as per the photo I've attached. But... are you sure those are 17" rims ? Both of those came out in 16" only, as far as I know. What size tyres are you running ? ie: 285/75R16 / whateve...

Hi Anika - and welcome to the forum. The PCD (pitch circle diameter) for the Patrol is not standard.

The radio changes the way one tours. It makes it easier passing trucks on the road, reporting on hazards in the roa...

Thanks Lawrence. I was unaware of this. Would you mind sharing details of the other companies who do these types of antennas ?

I acquired a set of M-Tech's long antennas to evaluate last year, but had some delays in actually getting it installed and tested. This one to be exact: https://www.mtcomm.co.za/product/m-tech-vhf-antenna-long/ In January we were camping at the bush camp at Doorndraai Lodge near Rooiberg. Being on t...
