Does anyone have for sale a pair of vacuum solenoids to activate the front free wheeling hub for an NJ or know of anywhere near the Gold Coast that has a set?
The thieves at mitsi want $250 for them and the best i can do 2nd hand is $100!
Any help would be great!!

For $250 leave it permanantly engaged and fit a pair of Triton FWHs

I tried to find secondhand locally when one of mine failed but couldn't do any good. They are very dear to buy new but at least it is a bolt off, bolt on arrangement which means your've only got to worry about getting the hoses right.

What about just fitting Manual Free Wheeling hubs and not don't worry about the soleniods. MFW hubs save your cv joint boots. The auto hub only unlockes one axle, MFW hubs unlock both axles and cost about the same as the soleniods.

Ended up scoring some (eventually) from my local wrecker we use at work for pretty cheap.... no more flashing lights!! And she even comes straight out of 4wd where she used to take ages before. Stoked!
