It's called a 5 post bull bar....

Built for (his) purpose everyone you don’t have to like the looks or choice it’s not your 4wd. 👍

Absolute ripper of an episode guys, enjoyed every minute!

Loved it, this was one of the best episodes n 4x4 ive watched. Great info and loved 'The Duck'. Thank you both.

I met Duck at the 4WD show 2019 in SA. Lovely bloke!

I love Radio. It’s one of the few medias that one can consume while being productive like driving.

I have to say thanks to you Ronny, a few months ago you mentioned the Ducks podcast, and as a big listener of podcasts during work I downloaded it straight away. Haven’t missed an episode since. Great regular guests every week. Talking everything that interests me.

Amazing episode, thanks👍🏻

great character, even better attitude, onya mate.

keep it real love it

the 550 is a great vehicle. I tow a van with mine and it handles it well. Plenty of grunt. I also added a catch can and intercooler. Also add a bigger tank to.

Great vid blokes. Good to see the conversation about what’s been done and why. That bullbar is massive! Love tuning into The Duck’s show each week, never miss an episode. And I’m glad you are back on it too Ronny.

Nice setup you’ve got there 👍. I’d love to come on an adventure with you in that 4x4 👍. I especially like the union flag you’ve got on it ( I’m in the uk) 😁. Keep up your good work 👏

bloody top bloke.....

top car bro and like for the legendary car

Nice bloke Ronny but I’m bloody positive he could talk underwater with a mouth full of marbles lol 😂, I’m pretty sure you had a look of “ please stop ! “ on your face at a few points too 😜 , 😎👍🍺🍺

Ive got a set of the Dick Cepek Extreme country. Ive done about 30k on them now. I absolutely love them.Awesome grip in sand, mud and rocks ( no snow here in WA) They have a soft side wall which makes it great for wrapping around rocks, they bag out nicely for sand. Ive had the rim sitting on the sidewall while off roading. No issues. They do get a bit noisey as they age.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😊 I ❤️ the Duck.

Nice rig. With towball weight it would have to be over GVM. Does the V6 have a higher GVM. These are things we never used to worry about but nowadays we have to comply. Love the radio show, great casual show.

Great setup. Thanks Duck and Ronny. That was a good run down on radio side by Duck - interesting perspective and good advice. I like the nissans because they have the air box on the passenger side which means the drivers side is pretty clear when you fit a snorkel. Would have liked to hear more about the donk. The nissans haven't always had a great reputation for reliability, so it would have been good to hear about that in the V6. I really appreciate builds with custom bits and home grown innovation...these off the shelf solutions - we all know they are good and work, but pricey and for some of us, that matters.

Ronny, just bought the American D40 called the Nissan Frontier. Getting it set up at the moment. Would you recommend the Dobinsons snorkel or the Ironman snorkel?

They are legal in WA as long as they have those hoops on the sides off of the end posts..

I got one of these six months ago. What mods would I need to do a bit of camping and eventually some big trips up north live on qld

Id love another 80 series maybe one with a fte see if I did mine wrong haha

I’ve also got a D40 navara, looking at getting the exact same lift, Ironman foam cell pro, have you had any problems? Is it worth it?

I have a TUFF bar on my Silverado too.....they are big, thick and heavy....and I love mine. However, mine is a 4 poster and as such it has the void in between the two central uprights, where a winch can be fitted. I'd love to know how the hell he's going to fit a winch to THAT style of bar....because it has a CENTRAL pillar, so the winch can't be centrally located as far as I can see. It'll have to go one side of the pillar..IE: be offset. Can't see any other way.
