Oh its a sad day, but I'm dieseling my RR

I'm after a whole ISUZU powered county ideally, the only thing that need to be in good knick is the engine, and if its an LT85 the box aswell, not worried about a shagged LT95 as I have a couple of spares

Interested in anything, will pay good Money, well, what I think is good, which is rare for me ;)

Interstate is fine, but if its a wreck, help with transport would be great

PM or call, Thanks Matt

Tried a ring around the truck wreckers? A mate bought a complete 4BD1T from an NPR from a melbourne wrecker for under 4k a few years back.

Trying to get one with 12V ancillaries and the correct bellhousingy bit, ideally with an LT95 bellhousing :D

There was a place at bundaberg/rocky that was selling all the bits needed to mate a truck engine to an LT95 (engine and LT95 bellhousings, flywheel, etc.). Not sure if they still have any, but they used to advertise in the 4x4 trader mags.

A stage 1 is probably the cheapest way to get everything, only problem is you miss out on the gear driven PAS pump.

I dunno if you'll like my price at the moment :D

I've got a couple "supposedly" are fair bit cheaper I'm chasing, but they'll probably fall through :roll:

There is a ser3 wagon that lives in the Blue Mountains for sale that has a 4bd1, I have passed it a few times it has a 4 sale sign in the window. I think it lives in Faulconbridge, someone may know of it. I will see if I can get more detail if your interested?
