Post by Evan »

Hi all,
Anybody got any ideas on best wreakers, spareparts and services for rangies in Melbourne ?
My poor tow rig is in need of some parts and TLC since i decided to keep it. Might just do that chev conversion yet.

RovaCentre has limited rangie stuff, more the rover sedan stuff.
I think Rangie Wreckers in somerville might be closing up.
There was a 4 sale sign a couple of months ago and I couldn't get through to them last week.
Pity, they were good too!

ill second that

my rig is in there now getting new springs all round and a bent body mount strengthened and rear trailing arms bent

all his work is top notch and i havent had a problem with any of it.

also his prices have always been cheaper than everyone else

he fitted my rear maxi for just over $2k when everyone else was quoting me $2500 plus

Yeah, Lenny's gone... He said he was going to re-open elsewhere, but if no-one can get hold of him, it's a bit hard to know where! :roll:
