I took my 130 HCPU to Moreton Island over easter. It was great. So much more room then my old Rangie. Great having the ute to just throw wet sandy gear into and also great not having to worry about carpet.

So much easier to clean inside after a trip...just take out the mats and hose it out.

The Defender Aircon runs some much more efficiently and effectively compared to the Rangie.

I have 2 boys - one aged 3 and one aged 1. And there is heaps of room in the back for a third child seat "if" that ever happens. There is no way 3 kids seats will fit in the back of a Rangie.

Other plus...fuel economy...my mate in a newish petrol rodeo chewed through fuel. I just used a quarter of a tank over the long weekend.

I'm sure you will eventually regret it if you have all the extra weight of a 130 and just a rover rear. Dana 60 4.1's are cheap ex US. Shouldn't end up costing much more than you can get for your old rear end...

It'll be on Patrol axles wont it?
