Y62 platinum 2019 off road kit ideas
Luc Khaldoun replied to Rawad's topic in Nissan Patrol Forum in UAE
Hello @Rawadand all other subscribers to this thread, thank you for making me aware of the discussion, it helps a great deal to understand what type of mods are to be considered for the Y62. Bearing in mind that I am just starting my mods, I went as far as I am concerned to the essential. Having said that, I hate the original bumpers with a passion, I can see that it can become a money pit. I have checked into the mods you have undertaken on your car and as you indicated but the 2020 model is still under development. As for my car, I had installed King Front and back coilover shocks with adjuster, I changed the rear springs, a galvanized skid plate, a ARB onboard twin compressor, 18x9 XD alloy wheels (I considered installing 17" but I would have had to modify the calipers), the tires are BF Goodrich all terrain 285 X 60 X R18. I also fitted other mods but this is for my own comfort and has nothing to do with off road driving. So the big concern are these bumpers which I need to modify without waving the warranty. Any tip is welcome. See you all on the road. -

@Lawrence_Chehimi, just preempting the end of the summer for replacing whatever I will break on my Y62 (the rear and front bumpers start to be tired) @Zed, thanks for the tip, I will check them out. @Gaurav, many thanks, I will drive over there in the next few days and make sure I find the right type of dealer. -

Hello gaurav, Many thanks for the promotion, I will try to make the club proud. I look forward to many future drives with the rest of the gang. @Lakshmi Narasimhan thank you very much -
Thank you Lawrence, this is very helpful. It did cost AED 500 to install. Obviously, given the end result, 500 too much.

Now, that's a good question. Why is it I feel dumb again 🤣 I am due to go to the garage tomorrow to learn more about it as it was installed only two weeks again. I will let you know by then

I had a kil switch installed on my Y62 (2020) - It messed up completely the electronics, the car set itself in road mode and I got stuck after 200 meters into the desert. After switching off the engine, I switched off the kill switch so that I could change the settings in 4L and engage the Diff-Lock to get out of what would be normally a very easy soft patch but the car would not have it. it would simply do what it felt like, while I felt quite stupid (I most probably looked the par). Only after getting advice from @Ale Vallecchi to change for a random setting (I ended up in snow mode), the car ran like a charm again. Not saying the kill switch is not useful, it just does not work for me or I must learn what it does exactly to my car before I use it again.
