Thanks ice, ill have a go through the reverse light switch first, i may be able to get a top selector unit from a mate but it'll cost me, so will see how we go.


Is there anything that can be done to prevent this from happening again ??


Cheers fellas.

Carts... you the man mate, what you said is the exact and i mean exact same thing i did, mate im so glad you give me this info, i feel a hole lot better now. Cheers bloke

Thanks Tooheys, ill probly have a look this weekend.

Ok guys, the strangest thing happened to me today, i got the cruiser in an ugly situation and changed gears, well the gear stick shifted to nuteral but the gears held reverse, now i'm thinking i might be able to relocate the selector through the top of the box if thats the problem. Ive also been ...

Definately the air locker. Everything else is just a cheap imitation. mmmm after having an MK with air locker rear and detroit front and then a maverick with twin air lockers, when I did the 80 i put electric rear and detroit in the front. Now I can understand in comps you may want to disengage in ...

Ahhh you are very clever bad_r..you are a mod ledgend...hand the man a 9''

I should have asked you first...next time i see you..you can fill me in fella

I thought it may be as easy as changing the hubs and backing plates and stuff but if its too hard ill leave the drums in, they work well but just a pain for maint thats all

Hi guys...just having a think what maybe involved with bolting up rear 80 disc brakes to the rear of a 60 to replace drum brakes.

Has anyone done this...is it easy and straight forward...what is actually needed to complete the conversion.

Any help and or ideas, suggestions would be great.

Cheers...

Are you sure they came from the japs.

They could have come from the states ??

Who knows...just a thought

Nice to see another bloke hungry for a 60

Switch is around $12 and the cover is $6 you should get change out of a $20.
I just bought all 3 switches for my lockers
Thats from ARB.

Cheers

Depends on how much you are paying for it is wether or not its worth it

Do not use the holes on the bottom of the bar unless manufacturer states they are snatch points. I seen pics of those eyes letting go and the shackle embeding itself into a new spare on the back just the other week. My local arb dealer said the holes with the reinforced backing is fine for recovery ...

Mate...i have a 62 and am about to fit some lockers and i think its a case of finding room where you will be happy having them....

Share some pics once you have done it...i will do the same

Did you buy second hand lockers did you... i did.

Thanks guys... im just a bit unsure cos i think the looms i have are pretty old and the diagrams are running differant coloured wires.

I might take it into arb and see what they have to say.

Cheers all

I thought that until i had nothing to winch from, sounds like youve allways wheeled around trees...Victoria comes to mind

Hi guys...im after a wiring diagram or some help and info on how all the switches and solinoids plug to what coloured wires and plugs.
I have the loom or what seems to be all the loom .

Cheers

I had a noise like that with my cruiser i pulled the speedo cable out and oiled it...worked for awhile then the cable ended up snapping

I am a fan of there shocks though....work very well imo

Hey... how did you go with ya springs ??? I got the same as you but the dakkar version and they sagged really bad in the front having duel batts and winch... i took them back and they added an extra leaf which brought them to a deisal speck and now they have sagged... also the sleave pressed in the ...

Models with the square lights also had a big dash upgrade...much better
