It was hard enough finding the ones I got! Mine came from Four Wheel Drives in Melbourne, but that was a few years ago and I don't know whether they have any others, but worth a try. I have never actually seen another set for sale, but I stopped looking when I found mine.

I'd also try Land Vehicle Spares in Sydney, as they have wrecked a lot of Landrovers and surely some had these.

You won't find them new, but they are not likely to get damaged, so second hand are likely to be good. Also, people with them seem to realise they are scarce as hen's teethe so expect to pay through the nose.

There was a badly beat-up Series II in a wreckers at Dalby that had the channeling. I don't recall the name of the place, but how many wreckers can there be in Dalby?

G'day Folks :)

That would probably be "Price's" wreckers at Dalby and I think he may have Pintle Hooks $125+:(

cheers

it wont be the same as i wont be able to get things to and fromt he front, but i'll keep looking for the Gal parts i need and one day get the right parts and get a correct 3/4 tilt.

Till then i will keep looking...
