Series II engine strip down

Busy in other areas at the moment.....

Repco would be the absolute last place I would be getting parts from - might as well as get them from Supercrap.

Repco - poor service, expensive, rarely have what you want and if you order parts they should have in stock you get charged a delivery fee as well.

You can do better.

We must be very lucky with our Repco in Murwillumbah, Garry.
Quite the opposite.

Try All Fours 4x4 at Kotara outside Newcastle. His online shop seems to have a lot of old series parts for rebuilds

Watching this with much anticipation as I am about to embark on a 2-1/4 rebuild myself. I find the Repco stores a bit hit and miss here on the Goldie, but with M/Bah, I think if it is owned by a local in a smaller town, there is a lot more customer service than in larger cities. I find the one near my parents place in Sydney live up to their Rip Every Poor Customer Off reputation, whenever I get dragged into fixing a car down there. The one near me once tried to charge me $48 for a uni joint for my 2a, Said he had 8 of them as NOS, but ended up paying $28 each after a bit of "Your kidding aren't you, a uni joint is not $48". He then tried to sell me all 8 as he didn't want them.

Hi Ian.

Believe you know Macca, from Chillingham. Wedding best man or something.
Macca was our outdoor education centre, Chef for a bit, and your name, I think, came up, regard LR world.

Hi whitehillbilly

I know Macca well, I wasn't his best man but I was at the wedding.
Know the outdoor centre, helped them with some air cond requirements
a few yrs ago. M/Bah is a small place isnt it, as you say, everyone knows everyone.
I worked in Tweed for about 17 yrs and know the whole area very well. Beautiful
part of the world down there.
Regards Ian

Repco Currumbin is excellent, it's not a lolly shop, and, I have also had good results with Murbah.

havent done much other than pour my mix down the bores of late

too busy with other things sadly...

Inc. now has access to a 200ltr plastic drum so he can cook his block in the "Brew" to get what he wants out of the block,which will also include the big-end and main bearing shells[bighmmm] and anything alloy.

cheers
