Thread: just looking for some info please

hello again
don't know if this is the right area to post under but as it is his first time here please forgive him ( jnr chook typing)

could some one give me a run down and the truth of the good & bad info on the land rover Ute's around 2010 models.
are they common rail are the axles any thing like the old ones my father had ( every time you looked at it it had a broken axle )
are the diff's, gearbox,transfers. c.vs, strong enough to handle 33 inch tyre's and some hard off rd are the electrics like the older models not much chop ,
also some info on the older x military Ute's with the 3.9 Isuzu engine are they any good
parts wise are they on par with gq on price range

cheers

2010 is called the puma after the engine, go have a look in the defender section for puma issues. In reality the cost of puma issues is around the same as a 2010 patrol as they have the hand grenade 3.0 td.
As to an ex army, pick the right one and it will last 5times longer than a gq ,galvanised chassis, aluminium panels, fit a rear Detroit and a set of hy tuff axles and maybe a front Ashcroft locker, axles and cvs and you won't stop. If your a bit more flush with cash lash out on a turbo/inter cooler for the Isuzu. Flares 2in lift and 4.1 ratio in the diffs and you can fit 35in tyres, try those in a patrol and your going to need a step ladder as 4-6 in lift +body lift+++ is where it starts.
