How does January 14th sound?

I've been using an LSD gear oil in my gearbox as it's better in hotter conditions - if you're planning to be doing some tough 4wd'n that will heat the gearbox it could be a good idea. I found mine shifted better after the gear change. Cheers Bennie Ooh ooh! Do tell ? What is it? Brand etc etc that'...

Sorry I've got no idea I was given 8 litres by a mate of mine when he moved house. I did a search and the only price I could find was in English pounds £28.78 for 4 litres. which according to the currency chocolate wheel is $44.50 AU. According to the gregorys manual you need 3.3 litres, I normally...

there are many brands and it depends on how much you want to spend. I have fuchs mp80 titan gear oil in my brumby box (admittedly it is a 5 speed liberty single range) and it works well. Jetcar has repco brand gear oil in it for now, when I have time I will change it to the same oil as my brumby. T...

What's the best type/brand of gearbox oil to use for the standard 4 speed Brumby box?

I've noticed it's getting a bit thin.... ( it's probably never been changed)

Hello and welcome Tamborex, lots of great people on this site, with a wealth of knowledge, and even a few with a few bargains lurkin in the shed!

Has anyone got any on board air set ups?
How did you connect them up?
What size tanks did you use?

Any pics?


I've got a Tmax Taipan, that I'd like to plumb into a tank permanently mounted on the car , to run larger ( ha ha) air horns, and air up tyres, cleaning of cabs etc

Does anyone know of any Northern fishing spots? Looking to wet the lines, and maybe try out the 4WD handle, to see if it actually works ( haven't tried it at all since I bought the car ha ha) Can you get in around the weapons area out on Port Wakefield road at all, it kind of looks interesting when ...

Some didn't think these disc rears were all that much better, but may have compared excellent drum rear to used disc rear end just before conversion - they are fantastic aren't they. Agreed with Bennie DOT3 was likely best spec in 1980's ! They are awesome .. Excellent pedal, great braking with lit...

Didn't realise we needed YOUR PERMISSION to have a bored imagination. I suggest in any event/ topic that needs to be asked or quizzed must be run past nachaluva first ! Seriously, it was a random topic as I was bored at the time, and no new posts had been put up! Maybe you could help me with my next...

Hey thanks Guys.. Flushed the whole system and used the DOT4... disc brakes on all 4 corners is freakin awesome !

I have just done a rear disc conversion on the Brumby . I bought some Nulon brake fluid for it to bleed the brakes which is Super DOT 4!
The cap on the master cylinder says " Use only DOT3" !

Am I still able to use it?

God Damn.... That's it... First thing tomorrow I'm putting one on... I may even have to get a New exhaust fabricated up with twin pipes out the back , with quad outlets!

Has anyone had any experiences with them?
Good or Bad!
How do you hook one up?

Just bored and after seeing some on you tube , I thought I'd ask the question ha ha

I hear what youre saying , and im taking it on board.... And thankyou for taking the time to give me your experiences:D
