Sorry guys, posted a question with photos but decided it might be poor form to ask the cost of a wreck when still in negotiation with seller. Matt

Intruding my BJ70 Hi Guys, Not sure if i've introduced myself properly before, made a few posts and comments though. I'm from Townsville, Australia and have a 1986 BJ70. Its a former NSW rural fire brigade vehicle (hence the colour) that has now retired to North Queensland for some fun...

hahaha, good one!...that sure is a nice way to describe my temporary (2 years so far) radio/UHF holder!

Hey Guys, What do you think of my homemade cupholder? Its not perfect... but pretty close i reckon. It all started with a left over SS downpipe bracket. Items required: · 100dia stainless steel downpipe bracket · 2no. 50mm screws with spring washers · An enamel camping mug that I cut the...

Hi Glenn, I've got a stock BJ70 with a few holes developing im my exhaust system... So either i can replace with 2inch or go upto 2.5inch for more performance. My question is... how far do i need to go with the 2.5inch pipe to provide the extra performance? would this include replacing the...

Hi Guys, I've been able to find an AC system from a BJ70 being wrecked that i hope to put into my BJ70...its complete except for the crankshaft pulley as the engine had already been removed with it. Anyone have a spare crankshaft pulley lying around with the AC slot? or know of where I can...

Great 70 mate! I've got a red BJ70 myself. You wouldn't have a spare AC pump and/or bracket by any chance? Also chasing the pulley with extra slot for AC pump belt and idler piece to lift revs when AC is on. Thanks, Matt

Yeh i've called quite a few wreckers but no one can help... the problem is that aren't that many BJ70s around and unless they're imported they don't come with AC. What are the chances of putting your AC system in a box and shipping it over?

Hey Guys, I've been reading the forum for a few years since i bought a BJ70. This forum has been really useful! I've just moved to Townsville, Australia and am dreading the coming summer without AC. I know there is a fair bit in the forum regarding AC for BJ70's however it seems a few years...

Where did you get the quote for the AC in Australia? I'm in Townsville, Queensland and i'm looking to install AC into my BJ70. The local guy says he can't find anything... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
