Re: 76 series auto conversion

I am now looking at keeping the 76, but it needs the POS midgets clutch pedal and box of spanners gone ASAP. The main issue is the tiny foot well with my size 12 feet, as there is no room beside the clutch. City driving is terrible, and I am doing it at least once a week for most of the day. Does ...

Thanks very much for the info everyone. I am trying to salvage the 22r, by fixing or replacing as needed, as I simply don't have the cash to do a conversion on it at the moment. The less spent fixing it to get 6 to 12 month out of it, the more money that gets set aside for conversion time. Thanks ...

Re: Baby seat in patrol single cab

You can have them in the front as there are no other seats available. single cab Ute obviously there isn't. You will need a mounting plate fitted to the rear wall. Your best bet is to contact Little's at Black town as they will tell you what is needed and they can fit it.

There are crab bars but there are other options. The simple dual cab device which is basically the same as the ones in MK's photo. They are pretty cheap. I know Littles has a huge range of approved mounts for a lot of different vehicles

As Mark said try Littles at Blacktown as they have fitted child seats to everything!
You might need what is called a dual cab device. Some bolt thru the rear wall some bolt over the rear window. Be warned they can be pricey!

I think the chassis rule could go BUT only if the body rule was very strict! It must look like a bodied rig not a buggy with some flat sheet skinning it. It works for Nascar and V8 supercars. If only it was as easy as Supercar/Nascar ;) With both them style cars, all are basically the same chassis ...

Re: Bleeding CNC cutting brakes.

Can you clamp the rear brake line and try and see if the pedal improves?
That should eliminate the cutting brakes if they are good. If no improvement there could be air still in them.
the other thing is the master cylinder could be the wrong size for your patrol brakes
