Will that be strong enough to hold the weight of the vehicle on the jack?

I don’t think I’d be trusting it!

Best of luck Lewmmarx! Ten, fifteen years ago these were already rocking horse poo… it’ll be harder to find them now - but you’re doing the right thing by looking, just factor in the time it’ll take to find one that someone is willing to let go of. As for your headgasket issue, double check that it’...

Wicked fog out tonight so I took the time to grab some awesome shots of the brumby as these photo ops don’t come around very often! This was about 9pm. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/800x600q70/922/boF9Ud.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/800x600q70/922/byw0Vf.jpg I really wish I was carryi...

Hey Sam, you’re doing better than me with a shed! Jealous. You’ll get all your tools etc in good time. You might even collect some extra ones when you work out it’s cheaper to buy new quality tools than the cost of fuel and your time to go collect them when you need them at the drop of a hat… Ballar...

It’s pretty rare to capture a glimpse of what these things are about, I reckon this pretty much nails it:



Sums up the good feeling experienced when driving my brumby

:lol: Yeah but last time I checked argon is an inert gas. What I’d need to do is reinforce the cab wall and have someone game enough to smash the taps off with a sledgehammer. Oh, and somewhere to fly that I won’t hurt myself or anyone else. Those rocket boosters are nuts! Oil change today. Just shy...

Not a great deal going on with Redback other than taking on daily duties this term. She’s road tested Subarino’s metal 3D printed thermostat housings that will accommodate the power steering setup or non PS setups. Neat unit and no issues. Very interesting with the metal print! Last week was a bit o...

You mean manual cars..? Sounds promising, will have to wait for delivery to dealers before we get too excited. And hopefully they don’t look like a bucket of puss like every other new car out there on the market. Either way, I won’t be in the running to pick up one of these, I’m still loving the old...

I don’t have any experience in this but the two avenues you name is what I’d be looking at too.

All the best with it!

Looks like a wicked weekend out!

Glad no harm was done to the wagon, a bruised ego will recover, if it was bruised in the first place.

Was this the only highlight of the weekend?

Respect mate! That’s effort on a whole other level than I’m willing to go to. I have a set of GC8 six spoke rims that could do with this sort of treatment!

Your efforts paid off, they look mint!

I’m so glad I grabbed my two sets of the original scorpions in the late naughties! Still got them, one set on Ruby Scoo, the other set (now refurbished) on Redback Brumby https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/800x600q70/922/rMHxoN.jpg Interesting that when I visited an engineer to discuss my EJ turbo p...

Noice!

Jeeps, say no more…

I just go to my local tyre shop that’s independent and ask them for a cheap and cheerful tyre that will do what a road tyre needs to do while not having me back for tyres again in the next two years from wearing out. I would need to check the brand etc to share the details - they’re also 14 inch for...

How good are the Bambu lab printers? We have the X1C and H2D at work. The X1C seems to be a bit better I reckon with the lidar that checks the first layers for issues. The H2 will sometimes keep printing when the first layer screws up. And I’m not sold on the quick release nozzle, good for change/cl...

I contact Subarino whenever I find an issue with the forum as he is my line to Andy T who runs the site. From what I was told it was a hack that took the forum down.

Dunno why they do it or what they get out of it, glad it’s back though!

G’day Spanner.

Sorry to hear about the spun bearing.

To help with your advert it might help to include some details such as colour, kms travelled and a general condition report.

Adding a location will help immensely too.

All the best with the sale.

Interesting valve stems. Where did you pull those from?

I reckon you’ll see better fuel economy. Anytime you can gain more torque it’s for the better. And having the temp correction in play that will make a huge difference. How did the original tuner get it so wrong? You’re lucky you didn’t kill your engine. I’m looking forward to hearing about your fuel...

Those are all real issues that need to be seen closer to the event. Fuel prices are crippling at the moment - this may be the same or worse closer to the event which could see me out for this one. Time will tell. I was looking at bringing Ruby Scoo this year with the family in tow - she still needs ...
