Got a problem with a 1989 Brumby Flywheel, Clutch Plate and Pressure Plate.
Who's the Guru on this subject?

I'm about to put my second screen in shortly using a slightly different method. I fit the rubber seal to the windscreen, then fit the metal trim. Push the top of the screen into position and work from the bottom with two cords, as shown in the manual mentioned previously. I have used kerosene instea...

Well, finally got around to fitting the the Indicator Spigot, or whatever it is called, using the brass pins off an electrical 3 pin plug. It is working fine and has been for a couple of weeks. With everyone seeming to have leads from mobile phone chargers, old computer screens, computers and househ...

I have used the brass pins out of a 240 volt electrical plug. They appear to be the right width and not too hard to bend into the required angle. Just a matter of cutting them to the right length. Used the soldering iron method to attach to the plastic. Have not installed them as yet, but will let y...

El_Freddo, can you remember where you got it from?

Thanks for the info Bantum, trying to source the Brass Angle here on the Gold Coast, closest I can find so far is up in Brisbane.
Regards Buddyboy.

Can anyone tell me the parts name for the "Plastic Thingy"?

Proton mouse,
Could you do me a favour and let me know what size and length your tow bar bolts are? I think they could be 17mm and go into to a captive nut.

Thanks for the info guys, I have purchased the set that was advertised on Gumtree and Ebay. Got them a lot cheaper than he had them advertised, he just wanted to get them out of his Garage. Backing Plates had a few stone chips, otherwise perfect. The Discs and Callipers look like they are near new. ...

Thanks to everyone that replied, I did not expect to pay $500 for them, so I will just have to wait and see what happens. I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope someone has a set and has not yet read the want ads.

Hi Guy, looking to do the Disc Brake Change Over to the rear on the Brumby.
They tell me that either Vortex or L Series RX 4 WD Rear Disc Brake will do the trick. The Brumby has a new name, "Humpty", because it's always in pieces.
Regards Buddyboy.

Thanks guys for the replies. Sorry for not getting back sooner, trying to get over a back operation. I have got onto a Wagon up in Brisbane, just a matter of being well enough to make the trip up. If I don't get this one I will be in contact.
Regards and all the best for the new year. Dennis

Guys,
Looking for all the bits and pieces for a change over from 4 speed manual 4 WD to 3 speed 4 WD auto. A complete MY Series Wagon with the 3 speed auto would be OK, depending on price. I live on the Gold Coast, so something close by would be great.

I have for Sale a Brand New Crane Cams FireBall XR700, Points to Electronic Performance Ignition Conversion Kit. Model No is 700-0292, which is suitable for early model EAs with Points Ignition, and many other Vehicles as well. Also included is a Crane Cams FireBall performance PS 20 Ignition Coil, ...

Sorry Vino Dubber, the EA81T is not for sale, as you know there are like Rocking Horse Poo, Guy that imports them from Japan is named Greg, and his Company is Called Rolin Imports, here on the Gold Coast, you never know when he could stumble across another one. Thanks for the advice re the Back El F...

Thanks to one and all, the project has come to a sudden halt, I've done my back in and unable to do too much at the moment. Although, it will give me a chance to read the Manual on the EA81 Turbo Engine that I have purchased from the US. Regards Buddyboy.

My main questions are: What type of Fuel Pump to use, I've read that you can use a Bosch 0580464070, Morrie has suggested using WRX Fuel Pump, which one would be the easiest, bearing in mind my next question? Is there a larger Fuel Line and Return that is an easy swap over that I could use? Using la...

Changed my mind, re the link above, I have a low kilometre EA81 Turbo sitting in the shed, picked up a cheap ECU and harness, so it would be stupid of me to now not use that Engine. That's what happened there. Buddyboy.

Just wanted to know if anyone has done the conversion and put an EA81 Turbo Engine into a Brumby? I know that there are plenty of Brats running around the US with EA81 Turbos, but wanted to speak to someone a little closer to home. Regards Buddyboy.

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone has stumbled across a Parts Catalogue/Manual relating to a 1989, or there abouts, Brumby. I have been able to find a Parts Manual for the EA81 Engine, but it does not include any other parts other than those related to the Engine. Regards Buddyboy
