the bronze bush in theback of the stub where the axel passes what sort of tolerance should it be? mines got about a half mil or clearance i recon its way to loose. otherwise everything is going to plan
go to any bearing retailer with your worn out U/S sample and they will measure it at the counter.. It's a bog standard generic UJ ..cheap as chips and made by various aftermarket companies... shop around and try to get a good brand and price .... inspect the new one with caution as there are cheap low quality bearings around being flogged to the unwary.
the 86" onwards type brake hoses are available from 4WD's in Melb. not too dear but not sure about quality either.
The swivel housing/hemisphere cups and tapered bearings again are a generic bearing ..also used on WW2 Dodge 4X4's ..I believe they used to be made here when bearing factories were still economical to run ! I would go for a good brand like SKF or similar and look for the marking MADE IN ????? on them ..if you dont see a MADE IN whatever on them..don't buy them cos they'll be cheap junk. Others will advise you on the upper bearing setup they seem to like the railko idea
