Compressor Pump Rebuild

[taffy241255]

Hi just wondering if there is anyone in Oz who does a complete rebuild of pump, I know you can get kits for piston but I have seen that others repair bearing, contacts etc, something thats a bit beyond me.
So please let me know of any or comments of which way to go.
Thanks Taffy:D

If you are going for the full recon why not get a new pump from the UK, bound to be comparable on price

there is also an aftermarket Thomas pump which with minor modification will fit & deliver higher volume in less time. it's actually the same pump as my re-inflaing off road pump.
Google or do a search on here or Rover Renovations ? there is definitely a thread on it somewhere.

Tasi - Rover Renovations used to sell the Thomas 327 compressor as a replacement for the stock EAS Compressor. This is what I fitted to my blue Hard Rangie. Was a good compressor until it failed and then I could not get aftermarket parts for it.

I went back to a stock compressor knowing that I could source parts easily... I kept most parts in stock, and still have a lot left now, which is just as well as my wife's P38 EAS Compressor threw the crank arm a few days ago :o

I also have a Viair compressor ready to fit as a supplementary unit when she lets me play.

Taffy - changing the internal parts over on the EAS Compressor is not difficult, and I still have most instructions published up at hardrange.com

Cheers, Paul.

When my LSEs' pump died I had the comporessor rebuilt in an effort to save some money. Six months later the electric side of the pump burnt out so I had to pay for a complete new pump. My attempt at a repair performed economically failed miserably. All up it ended up costing me just over $1G - twice the price of having a new pump fitted.

Just buy a new Landrover pump and then forget it for the next 250,000 kms.
