View topic - GRAHAM NEEDS HELP IN THE VIC HIGH COUNTRY ASAP | Australian 4WD Action

Hi folks
Well, it worked for Roothy so, I'm going to give it a go...
We are currently filming an Action DVD just outside Dargo (east Gippsland, Victoria) where Jamie Hazelden has had an unfortunate issue with his brand spanking new 130 Defender. We are not sure just how it happened but he has shattered his front uni and front facia housing. As such, we are chasing a replacement uni and facia OR the complete front yolk end.
So here we go...what are the chances any forumites can help us out ASAP either with parts or perhaps a contact who may be able to help close by????

If anyone can help please either PM mem post up your contact details or if all else fails give me a call on 0421254741

Any help would be appreciated guys!

What parts off the new Defender are compatible with say a 1996 Defender? If so I could have bits on hand.

Thankyou to the mod who moved my thread. I deliberately posted it into the NE VIC area due to the area the problem was in, and because there's a lot of us that don't bother visiting this area normally.....

This thread was already up and running 26 hrs before yours which is why yours was merged with this one (as is the case with duplicated threads here).

If you look in the NE Vic section you'll see that your thread is still there, just redirected to this one. It is an expiring redirect though & will stay there for a couple more days yet.
