I highly recommend the ICOM IC-400PRO Commercial grade quality. I have had mine for about 8 years and it hasnt missed a beat. Not sure if they have a newer model that does 80channel. Might be worth looking into. These guys have always been good when I have bought radios: http://www.prestigecom.net....

when i was in new south early in the year
i got the cops as we hit peak hill heading north on 440 odd meg digital unencrypted
and still had them down on 70mhz as well

theres a wire on the ecu that needs to be grounded to change it to manual gearbox
not sure if it matters but it may make a differance

i have pearl paint on my liberty

bought it crashed so i had no option but to respray panels and was quite surprised how well it matched

the color was arctic blue pearl and we used lesonal paint

i found my speedo drive makes a similar noise around that speed

maybe a little late but with the idle valve if you mark the position of it and undo the screws on either side with the engine running twist the top of the valve the engine should idle up or down depending on which way it was twisted and return to its normal idle rpm line the solenoid top back up wit...

the semi sealed beam replacements are for a landcruser 80 series fit the twin headlamp brumby (if your not upgrading wiring use h4 lamps for all 4 the h1 units short earth to the body and high beam will come on and off with viabration or whenever you turn on the headlights) and i think the single he...

the tach sense wire needs to go to the negative side of the coil.

if you have a later model l series theres a tach signal wire that goes to a black box on the right hand A pillar right up under the dash it should be yellow on a 6 pin connector and if you unplug it the fuel pump stops working.

if your changing the tranie fluid dont forget the filter under the left hand guard liner bout $15 from burson or the like

isn't there a plug on the side of the box that allows removal of the detent pin and spring might pay to check that its all still in there (don't know if this is on the late model boxes but i checked the fsm and its definitely on the early ones) could have fallen out or a dodgy mechanic could have re...

brumby's are negative switched like the MY wagons

i have had a similar problem before with h7 semi sealed inserts with metal backs where the back of the inside lights short to the body and in my case the high beam came on full whenever the headlights were turned on

trying to up the output of your current will most likely kill it i would be be looking at trying to lower your consumption or fit a bigger battery for some more storage i run an ej and a waeco fridge with 35w hid lights and a 700cca battery with no problems and have on occasions charged my camping b...

gday Taza

just a thought running round my head may not work but worth a look

have you seen how the centre locking diffs work from the jap import lseries boxes
i have some photos but no place to put them up online pm me an email and lii shoot them though

cheers

another option is n13/14 pulser long shafts and have them shortend

one type has the same spline (shaft to joint) as early liberty cv joints

if the sti is like the liberty it will have two fuel senders in the tank and the brumby only has one

you will have to modify the cluster to remove the divider circuit if this is the case

It's probably possible to swap 25spline stubs in to the gearbox. Not sure how difficult or if it's actually possible but maybe Apline might know, he's a bit of a gearbox guru. you can swap the stubs but im pretty sure the gearbox has to come apart to achieve this there not the same as the rear diff
