Question re Brumby Ag-quip factory package

Hi all

I've been searching and googling for about 6 months off and on - trying to discover exactly what the factory Brumby Ag-quip package actually added to the car - any help ?

I believe it was a replacement bullbar, rear diff protector and a rear bar that has a step in it where the number plate mounts to the back of the ute and probabily the tow bar too. And lets not forget those fancy AgEquip stickers...

Other than that, its a standard brumby.

Cheers

thanks for that, thought there may have been more to it than that, but I do love the stickers:p

What was the model of Brumby that came with side steps? I remember seeing this in the dealershp back in the mid 80s and thought they looked great

With the amount of converted Brumbys around, you might be able to find one for sale that has EJ20T and AWD already. Solves the power disparity that the Brumby suffers from against the modern competition.

Was offered with taga roof as a sports model + Sunnies + load bars + the skirts.

But probably available on any brumby as an option

Have the sales leaflet around somewhere, backdropped with a windsurfer in the background

I'm thinking "Agriculture Pack" for the Aussie Farmer

Or Agriculture Equiped. That's what I've always thought it to mean... Dunno what the average aussie farmer needs with a diff protector with the way I've seen them cruise around the paddocks in their brumbys!

Ag-quip is an agricultural and primary industry field day held at Gunnedah NSW

Subaru sold a special edition Brumby that was fitted with a heap of factory extras and stickers. These models were only available from Ag-quip field days.

Now there's a bit of trivia for you!

Ahhh makes sense now....

diff protector - in case they run into a rock? Ive never seen or i dunno if anyone has cracked or broke rear diff housing without a protector? have you?
Ive got one in the garage but never got around to fit it.

AG = agriculture. Quip = equipment. These brumbys where sold at Agquip field days mainly in rural NSW its a brumby with extras you choose what you wanted standard vehicle came bullbar towbar/rear step. All came with agquip decals usually with year model you chose the rest some even came with a cage for the rear

gtcompletepower · Post by **gtcompletepower** » Sat Mar 06, 2010 1:28 pm

some years had cut down front guards for better clearance it was shortened inline with the bullbar

There were a whole heap of the ag quips bought by hte snowy hydro scheme back in the day, And the targa tops were optional on most brumbies but not standard on the sports model!
