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.

steve. problem is tow car is in cooma (4 hours from here) so i'll need to get one down there.

cause im not even sure when i need it im in no hurry really. just looking at options for now. but yeah if i need to i'll just end up hiring one.

just being a tight arse for now.

this is going to sound random but by dave you mean trailer dave yeah?

has blue magnets for buisness cards?

if so i know dave. we use to go out heaps when i lived down there.

he is a top bloke.

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
