Yeah found one locally I'll give them a call and see what the damage is and weigh up between new or having the car off the road for a few days to get the original coated and machinedQuote:

Surprisingly he couldn't recall ever picking up a Deefer.
Go figure ?
BTW I haven't got to the cooler hoses yet, and Strangy warned me about them when he found out I was picking up the D2.
It has to go to the smash repairs first. First car in twenty years I've had a bingle in.
At least I'll get a proper bull bar on it now instead of the OE tubular nudge bar with wings.
Old mate was chatting to me.
'So we're abouts in blahblahblah am I taking you? Haven't I towed this car before'
'No, that would be the blue one. Same problem. Same place it happened. I bought this one about 3 weeks ago.'
'..........and you're still driving them?'

I really feel like I'm in the Disco club now as I have several too, one after the third day of driving. [bigwhistle]Quote:

Only just got it. SWMBO got out, as she thought it was too deep! [bigrolf]
How embarrassing, the disco on a tilt truck and that Silver soft roader travels by without incident.Quote:

Maybe it is the theory i live by carring a good range of tools some hose and cable ties and some hose clamps assorted nuts and bolts as i have never failed to make it home from anywhere .
No im not bragging or having a dig at anyone but always give it a go , Hell a old holden i owned once i even changed a timing gear in the middle of nowhere on the side of the road [bighmmm] I might have hitched a ride to get said parts but i got home[wink11]
