hey just wondering if anyone has a car trailer in the act i could borrow one weekend in the next couple of months?

i use to live in cooma and my mum wants to sell my dads land-rover.

now i want to buy it but i want to get it to sydney.

why would i want to do this you might ask?

well it was my Grand fathers then he passed it onto my dad and now that my dad has passed away mum doesnt know what to do with it and wants to sell it.

but i have so many memories from id like to keep it in the family. especially considering my grand father bought it brand new.

so anyway i would come pick up the trailer on saturday morning bring the land-rover to sydney then bring the trailer back to canberra either saturday night or sunday morning.

so if anyone has one to lend then i will give payment of some kind for the usage. and work out a weekend when this would suit both myself and you of course.

here is what im talking about for anyone who doesnt know.

Thanks

john

Looks like something from a world war. Also looks in awesome condition!

If you dont have any luck here, a hire place wont charge much for that sort of rental, i use the Caltex on King Georges Rd near the corner of Forest road, usually the trailer is there, but it doesnt hurt to call ahead and book it :D

Might I suggest Absolute Rentals, 5 Beirne St, Wanniassa. Really good rates and the trailers are as good as any others in Canberra, book ahead though, Dave has become quite busy lately, word has gotten around.

      Kittens in first to claim dominance of the residence, then puppies later From past experience, the other way around can be problematic to say the least  Those weird "Dobby looking"  little kittens are not cheap....LOL

      At least yours have parkour down pat. One of mine will still trip over his own shadow and fall over... He's a special type of cat... Ha ha ha

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
