Hi G-MAN,
For interest sake, I found a website Arctic Trucks where they have a couple of Patrols with different wheel sizes, from 35, 38 and 44's. I don't know if it is applicable to the type of driving South Africans do, but I see they say they they have a 5.13:1 diff ratio on them for 38" tyres. The link to the site is www.arctictrucks.com. Here you can get an idea of what it will look like.

Re: CROWN & PINION GEARS!
The red patrol with the 35 and extra fairing really looks the part, I might just forgo a replacement bumper to get it too look like that. should float well on sand roads and float across the water. Might just make my GL's gearing a bit taller
