Welcome mate!

Can't help you on your mechanical woes, but if there are any to be found - here is the place. ;)

Do you have any pics of your Landy? (golden rule of this forum - PICS!) Would love to see it... :)

Thanks Shonky,Ive attached a before and after, I've had the old girl for about 9 months,a woman in darwin here gave it to me. She had it under her house for about 7 years i believe and it sat for a couple of years before that somewhere else before that. Some one put a holden 161 motor in her and headlights in the wings long before i got her. i added some bucket seats but apart from that i think shes fairly original.

Andy,
Email the boys at Dunsfold Land Rovers (they are on the web). I bought my linkage parts from them quite recently,

No, the ones that i have are 2 piece and slip in either side with a flat collarYou are talking about the bushes in the chassis - the part number is 218014. However you will probably find that your clutch relay shaft is also worn so you may consider having a local machine shop machining your relay shaft back to round then making undersize bushes to match the shaft.

Thanks for your help guys, much appreciated:)

Like was said Dunsfold probly has them
You will have to skim the shaft. Depending how worn the shaft is
You can usualy clean up the worn area BUT you can't go below the splined area. Make or get made some over size bushes

G'day mate, go to the old QANTAS hangar in Parap, my 1957 is on display there if you need to reference anything off it pretty original. PM me if you need a car trailer or any help.
