Found a good source to get some Perentie spare parts, Is there anything apart from the obvious stuff that would be worth grabbing, any parts that may cause an issue on a long trip ect... cheers

If you're talking parts specific to the Isuzu, one I can think of is the fuel pipe from the top of the filter housing, the one that's bent around in a circle. Apparently they have been known to crack.

just hop in and drive..........

give it the once over and a good service, pack some basic tools......its going to take a while before you get to know the car

i spent 20 years around the army 110 and 6x6, like any car if you maintain them the generally look after you

Don't know what you call obvious stuff but guessing spare fuses, fan belt, radiator hoses, bypass hose and filters (don't forget the sedimenter one on the chassis. Apart from them not much seems to give any problems. Good idea to carry a spare set of wheel bearings and a new hub seal as well as a couple of driveshaft unis. (K5-13XR) fits front or rear on the perentie. Interested in sharing your "source" ?

what the bear said. i also carry rear axels, a tin of fiberglass bog ( radiator). 5 ltrs of oil, motor oil you can use every where else. c clip plyers. and WATER. shes a big radiator if you have to fill it.

having said all that. my spear parts always seem to go to othere peaples Defenders and countys. not always to be replaced :censored:. and some times not even a thank you. but then there is also the odd bottel of red.
so i do not tend to let on what i have onbord nowdays.

bugger now i have to fugger out how to delete this post
