Having worked on and parted out several A/C systems I can say there is no other 'switch' you are looking for SB. As far as I can make out by your pic (it comes up a bit pixelated when blown up) they are referring to the main one, of those 3 strut tower relays. Some systems I've seen have 4 relays btw.

My old '84 wagon had standard struts, but slightly longer King springs fitted at one point, which gave it a horrible positive camber. Fitted standard height springs back, which gave it back its not as bad factory positive camber. Unfortunately there isn't an adjustable eccentric bolt at bottom of st...

I wish!! Ive got several sets of wagon lights but no Brumby spare ones.
It would be a semi major custom fab job to get them to fit.

Are there 1 or 2 relays? Mine has 2.
If they (it) are both clicking then they (it) should be ok.
Then look at swapping over the indicator switch mechanism.

Ok a bit more difficult if things have been cut/modified but can still help. Essentially, power comes straight up from the fusible links (next to battery) to the relays, then to fuse box, then straight back down to lights. Its the activation of the main headlight switch that gives an earth to the re...

Just a couple of preliminary questions...
Have you worked on anything else recently? (electrically)
Can you hear or feel the 2 tin top relays clicking at all, when you go from high to low beam? (They're situated just above left of the fuse box)

The owner of suspension place I have used for 25 years mixes up what he calls "honey" to put into rack boots.
Basically a mixture of grease and oil to what sounds like the same consistency you speak of. Maybe others have had the same idea??

Yep wont be a drama. I know of 2 EJ turbo powered Brumbys that had the standard radiator in them, with no cooling difficulty.

I love that shot of your Brumby with the engine out, next to the giant, wooden legged, engine lifting platform (and I thought they called you tripod for other reasons)
I see you have the same shed as me, same colours and all!!

An even bigger stressor is when you have spent hours and hours cleaning, degreasing, painting and installing the Brumby engine X-member. Fitted the engine, control arms, struts and brakes to it. AND THEN find out that some Brumby X-members wont accept the power steering rack at all within their moun...

NOOOOOO!!!!! A) is not plug and play unless you have the analogue dash's wiring loom.
It is only plug/play (with the correct dash loom) at the 3 main plugs at the firewall, above the pedals.
