I will use the dremal to cut to lenght and mark oil levels any help would be appreciated

A question, How the hell do you lose a dip stick?

Unless it wasn't in it's rightful place

Mine are all 2.25

Dont know I checked the oil one day went to check next day and no dipstick I might have forgotten to put it back I have checked the net plenty of sticks for 2.25 even 2.5 but none for the 2.6looked at UK sites as well
Must be old timers catching up

Will take my tape measure on the trip to the wreckers should be able to get somthing that I can boge up thank you

Talk about all timers...having dinner was telling HH about the thread and he said "Jack" is a 6 cyl... will look tomorrow

Yeh I was parked in the same place both days so if I didnt put the stick back it should have close by but checked out the whole of the village camp ground Still cant figure out what I did
Have to visit the wreckers to get parts for both my son and daughter so now I can look for for me as well

4 Wheel Drives in Blackburn have the 2.6 dipstick listed in their catalogue but.....there are a lot of items in there that they don't carry any more.
I can't see dipsticks being a fast moving item so worthwhile giving them a call their part number is Q120 and it's listed at $11
