Rundown of a Cummins Patrol touring Australia - 12 volt, rear setup, engine, suspension & more!
Walk through our converted Cummins Patrol with us as we take you through the make up of our tourer!
We run through the outer and inner car setup, the suspension and engine bay, and our camping set up. We talk through what we love and things we wish we did differently.
Let us know in the comments if you have any questions about the Cummins or anything you would like to see in a future video!

Watch us tackle Deddicks track and the Ramhorn track in the Snowy River National Park of Victoria. We encountered track closures, amazing views, and lots of steep hill climbs! We hope you enjoy the video as much as we enjoyed making it :)

    VNT turbo with no lines on the actuator.....? No shroud on the radiator is why its getting warm, not the bar or lights.

    • @surf2dirt

      It's not a vnt turbo and waste gate blocked when it was tuned, never really had drama with it. Yeh chucked on a shroud when I got to qld once I picked the boat up made big difference. One of those jobs just didn't get round too before trip

    Just come across this run down, it twas the troll sporting the Bundutop that caught my attention, as that's what we have. Those Bundutop units are awesome, expensive but worth every cent. You appear to be a tall dude, so my major improvement wouldn't suit you, but as my wife & I aren't tall I utilised the space at the end of the bed to mount a permanent diesel heater, that unit on cold nights transforms the tent. I have mounted 2 X dimmable led reading lights, external ladder light, 12V electric blanket and designed a pivoting bracket that permanently mounts to the ceiling light frame, it holds a int, ext thermometer and we can slide our mobiles into it to watch movies in bed etc. On-top I've mounted 220W solar, a frame to store the Bundutop ladder (yes we still use it), & 4 X maxtracs. We fitted the add a room awning, and Bunduawn 360° unit to ours. Just love it, ours is our glamping unit, it's so nice to pull up & rest up, anytime. Easy to setup if you're a bit toey also (certain you'd discovered that), well until the kids bust yah!!!! Hahaha.

    New sub mate awesome video Few questions how much didn’t it all cost you ? And is it worth the conversion? I’m looking into 6bt for my patrol . Also do you need to upgrade your suspension for engineering for GVM upgrade etc ? Also any common issues that you find especially for a tourer cheers keep up good work

    • @surf2dirt
      @surf2dirt Рік тому

      Hey mate cheers for the sub. Doing the conversion was about 35k with the rebuild. Honestly haven't added up the camping set up too scared too🤣 yeh I reckon it is worth it but it's a lot of work. No real show stopper issues just few teething issues you get with conversions. If ya want further details DM us on insta 😄

    Love the rig. Just come across your channel. Have subscribed. Would have been good to have heard the engine running and working in this vid! I’m building a Cummins patrol at the moment, also in SA but seems you have already passed thru here which is too bad otherwise i would have asked you to dive for some cray and abalone down South East. Looking forward to watching your next videos.
