Reply With QuoteColin, what are your plans for a group buy?
I need about 6 metres but I am happy to go 1/3's in a roll if you don't have the numbers.
Cheers, Mick.

SupporterI did a quick investigation today into the seal.
25mm x 13mm rectangular.
Direct from the extruder $6.5 per mtr. must buy 30mtr roll and probably have to pay GST.
4-Wheel Drives $22 for a length to suit a SWB (1.8mtr) so about $12.22 per metre.
Paddocks, a moulded profile (not plain rectangular) 6.11 GBP for 1.8 mtr.
333487 | Seal - hardtop to body - Paddock Spares
Might check Clarke Rubber.....
Just checked the length and it's just under 1.7mtr for a shorty.

One more company to approach and as the company I work for supplies them......maybe I can swing a discount.
Hope to do that next week.
I only need enough for 1 shortie & 1 wagon (7 metres).

SupporterSpent an hour or so chasing electrical problems today.
Wallit came with a towball & 7-pin plug but I've never tried it out. I need to take the trailer out tomorrow so thought I'd see if the wiring to the plug was OK.
Connected the trailer and the sidelights & brake lights were OK but the left hand indicator wasn't working. Checked the globe in the trailer first and after some investigation tracked the problem down to a Scotchlok behind the rear crossmember. Not really a fan of these connectors but inside a vehicle they are OK, anyway, re-fitted it and all fixed for now.
Re-connected the trailer and then realised there is nowhere to attach the safety chains, maybe not something that was needed back in the 70's
If used at night the instrument lights are a bit dim so got a box of the correct globes and replaced them, in daylight it didn't seem much better but I 'll find out after dark....Probably the instruments want cleaning inside.
Haven't got onto the foam strip yet, hopefully next week.

SupporterNoticed under heavy braking that Wallit was pulling to the right.
Found some time yesterday and pulled the left brake drums......turned out that the hub seal on the front was leaking.
Now that Wallit is being used fairly regularly the grease in the hubs is gradually getting mixed with oil. For some reason the hub seal wasn't sealing properly (nothing obvious).
Degreased the linings as best I could (the contamination wasn't that bad) and re-assembled with a new seal. Must get round to casting my eye over the drums the other side.

SupporterSourced the foam seal for under the side panels, size is 25mm x 13mm
PM me if you are interested, about 1/2 the normal price.
The company is looking into door seal extrusion, they have the dies and can produce in their Malaysian factory. Just waiting for price & minimum order quantity.

Door seal rubber would be fabulous as I am in the market for some of that too!

SupporterManaged to find some time at the weekend to do a bit more work on the bonnet.
Gradually replacing every pop rivet as someone has sanded it down in the past and sanded down the rivets !
Went to a wreckers in Dandenong at the weekend to get some parts to fix the wife's Territory and got a few strange looks turning up in Wallit.
Starts and drives well but still a few clonks from the leaf springs on cornering. I'm replacing the bushes in the springs from the LWB wagon I parted out and will fit these at some point in the future.
