New Youtube Pinz Video

NZ training course for the Pinz. Doesn't look like they really pushed them to the limits. I did like the look on the one guys face, though.

How much of the TD's parts are compatible with the 710 and 712? I like the looks of those soft tops. The doors and tops look like a better design too.

Nice video, thanks!
About petrol vs. diesel parts compatibility: just axle boots, as far as I know owing both ...

NZ, it looks like it could so easily be here in Wales especially with all the wet. :P Interesting video.

Ugo, if you swap rims, the tires fit both too. :lol:
But since those are 718s with hardtops over tha cab and longer front rollbars, the rear canvas would be the same size as one for a 712. As for the front doors, if one was so incline to move the hinges and the new latch strike, the doors are the same shape too.

It's interesting in the opening that it refers to the "Driver Training Wing", with all the bad PR that Mogs have gotten in NZ, the military must be trying to avoid that with the Pinzes.
