Mk3iain Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) Selling my Land Rover Perentie. Due to lack of use and my eye on something else. In fantastic original condition and amazing spec and with only 30570 km on the clock ! This is an extremely rare vehicle in the UK and with a better spec that a Wolf with the Isuzu 4BD1 3.9l engine. There will not be another in this condition ! I have driven around 3k ( Almost half was the journey home from the importer in Milton Keynes) in the last 6 years and have spent most of the time cleaning and painting the suspension and overhauling brakes etc. Not that it needed it. Picture was taken in better weather than we have now but it has not changed. More to come ! Edited February 10 by Mk3iain More stuff.

Mk3iain Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 (edited) An interesting article telling the Perentie story. Hopefully its OK to post ! p52-65 Perentie.pdf This is the Australian government agency "Australian Frontline Machinery", database of manuals.

Richard Farrant Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I have done some long drives in Australia with a 4x4 Perentie, a sound vehicle. Also back in 1992 I was involved with a RAEME unit as we were both taking part in a Variety Club Bash (car rally) and I had to take an army driving test in a 6x6 Perentie so we could use it as a support vehicle, now that was one vehicle I would have liked, especially the workshop version. Good luck with the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 6x6 are impressive but the GVW is a bit much for here. I would still like one though, maybe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiomike7 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I'm not familiar with these, is the lower cover on the transfer box used for the 3rd axle drive on a 6x6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Mike, No that's the PTO for the winch, it's chain driven. The output for the third axel was taken from the cover plate above it that is often used for an overdrive unit. The bit that sticks out to the rear is the torque limiter for the winch output. Edited February 12 by Mk3iain More stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiomike7 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Thanks, that sounds rather like the 101 with a driven trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
