Great News, UAE4x4 members will soon have a chance to get a special discount on optima batteries upon presentation of their membership cards. I was about to order one from the US, but I just came to know a new dealer has been appointed for the UAE. saved me a lot of money + on top of it we're getting a discount. For those of you who are unfamiliar with optima batteries, Optima is THE Offroad car Battery, it's non-liquid, so you can mount it any which way you want, even upside down . Being non-liquid it's resistant to vibrations. Yeah some you will ask, do we need to mount the car battery upside down ?? maybe no the main battery, but if you are installing a dual battery system, optima would be an ideal solution since you can "stach it" anywere to learn more visit : www.optimabatteries.com/details to follow soon Fouad

I am meeting them tomorrow, so hopefully you'll be able to get one next week Moe, but did you get your membership card ?
Klaus, discount on SUV, well although far fetched, but it's not impossible actually, I might be able to get something like that once I am back, I am travelling on vacation day after tomorrow

Hi Fouad. I already haev 1 Yellow Top in my Patrol, but am looking for a second, in order to hook up the dual battery system. The dealer in Lebanon is out of Yellow Tops for a few months, can you help me get one from UAE?

Hi Fouad, I am most probably coming to Dubai in November, during eid el fitr.
Can I ask you for 2 huge favors?
1- I would love to go on a trip with you guys, and I have 2 friends who will be there, one from KSA and the other from Dubai, both Lebanese that work there. So if you can arrange an outing, it will be amazing.
2- I need you to check, if you can, for Front and Rear ring and pinions 4.6:1 ration (i.e. 37/8). If you know wreckers or part sellers, and can get them ready by the time I get there, I would appreciate it bigtime. The diffs I have on my truck have a 10 bolt outer shell. The truck is a 1994 Patrol LWB, European specs.
Thanks a million.
I also would appreciate if you can have my membership card ready, since I might buy an Optima and bring it with me too, in case the guy here in Leb dosen't get them by then.
Thanks again

The 4.6 Patrol ring and pinion is not currently available in the UAE. This ratio comes on the european diesel with 5 speed manual transmission. Alternatives available are some 4.315 ratio coming from Patrol pick-ups...

Thanx for the info Difflock!
Do you know how much the cost of the 4.3s is?
And if you can check if the outer shell is 10 bolts, I'll be more than grateful.
Thnx!
