Both mine have been fine but most issues seem to turn up when clowns that have no idea cut and shut accsories in. One alt on the ute and a starter in the 15 plus years I've had it and I don't doubt they were most likely original. The wagon I haven't had to touch. Most other issues get blown right to **** by **** heads with no idea and believe every thing thre told normally fith hand from a mates cousins dog washers sisters mum who saw a land rover once. If the rubbish banded around was half true the **** would never leave the driveway

Must be a lot parked up then, I worked in the Great Dividing Range 1977-2oo8 and live in its shadow now, see other brand 4wds at about 500.1
Speaks for itself.

It's good you are having a good run and love 'em 460, all the best with them.
 
Almost bought a 661 today without the bar or chain for $1700, but then dropped into Klika and had a good look at those diesel 50t splitters....

Looks like you have to be careful of the castings on the axe head.....a few cases of the uprights breaking off the lower sliding section that connects to the UC chassis beam...

Walked away with nothing but a pocket load of cash
Thanks for that first hand pointers about

Just spent the day at the Dowerin Field Day, checked out the Whitlands Superspliter. Nice product but the ws3150 @ 8k it's a bit much, The guy I went with concured that we might have a crack at building one with bits for less than $1000+ time.

I'd do the same, but I haven't learnt to weld.

Whitlands Engineering, the makers of the superaxe source there hydraulic rams and probably their pumps and valves from here

I can't ever see a restored first model tojo ever bringing $70,000 at an auction, like a series one landrover has achieved, it would take years just to find the rust stain, then the restoration after that. LOL.

True, but the 40s and 45s regularly pull $10,000 for a mint or restored one. Don't see too many 70's models land rovers go for that either. Each got their good and bad points I reckon.

Most blokes with (half a brain and) $70 grand go out and buy a NEW V8 LANDCRUISER TRAY and don't waste time on decrepit axle breaking relics bwildered - lol - each to his own though I guess :D
