Out.

Ah another one who read a few lines and then their brain went on holiday while their mouth kicked into gear.

My issue was not directly related to the placement or procurement of pioneer tool brackets if you had cared to read further, but this happened to highlight a particular theme emerging on this site where members while trying to be what they beleive to be helpful, inadvertantly confuse and compound the problems of other members.

Somebody was asking for the correct information on a particular item and advice came in the form that not one single thing was correct, down to the labelling of an axe holder which clearly held a pick head. As I said, I'm not picking on Juddy, as I know he was trying to help, in fact I have supplied Juddy with advice while leading up to the purchse of his 130, but pointing out that it sometimes does alot more harm than good. Is it too much to ask for people to think about their response?

Rijidij, on the highjack. I'm sorry. I said my piece, some have responded to what I said, and I feel it needs a response. You have gained the info you were after, right down to finding out your set was incomplete although surprise, surprise you had advice otherwise.

Anyone else with a mouth, use a PM.

As I'm missing one clamp and I don't have the tools, I haven't decided wether to fit the clamps or not yet. There's plenty of time to decide as the 2A's not on the road yet, but here's a pic of the 2A 2.25 diesel anyway..................

Very Nice. I have the same model, although not as pretty. I love it as you get the funky metal dash, but the headlights in the guards so you can see 2 feet in front of you instead of the usual 1.

Original tools will be VERY hard to find, but like the rest of us, just go to Bunnings and buy the modern Cyclone or Trojan equivelant. I took my holders into the store before I fitted them to see which tools fitted best.

Very Nice workspace there. Love the pit. Is that a series 111 plastic grill I see there:angel:

Nice, very nice... I like the old Series II/IIA cross-eyed look. But that's my preference.
Here is a pic of my SII (1961) at Cape York. The tools I have a Bunnings Special, definitely not original, but they fit and do the job.

Don't worry. There's a lot that would kill for that look. Mine is as well. The only style concession LR made to the vehicle? Chrome headlamp rims.

I remember your odyssey. Seems a million years ago now.:D

Yeah... seems like a million years ago - at it was ;) Year 2000. Cheers mate.

Yeah, I thought I would get some sort of 'grilling' about the grill. :eek::D It's a personal thing, I just prefer that look, and I was missing the original anyway.
