Yes, there is an Australian supplier of King Dick tools in Queensland and I have contacted them.

It all depends on whether they follow the line that any part from the UK seems to automatically attract a doubling or tripling of their value because they were "imported".

Being a Land Rover restoration addict I have learnt from first hand experience that it is usually better to buy parts from the UK and have them posted over. Normally the parts arrive more promptly at your door for a greatly reduced price compared to the cost and time it takes for deliveries from local - Australian parts suppliers.

I am actually after the 4 piece set of King Dick TKR 4W Ring Spanner / Wrench Set 4 Piece Whitworth Ring Spanner - Offset. http://www.lawson-his.co.uk/king-dic...ch-set--p45231

Kind Regards

Lionel,

Being a Land Rover addict I am wondering if you have a few spare bits and prices. I am chasing a rear left galvanised body corner trim for a series 2/3 and a pair of army tail light guards, and a set of usable tail lights.

G'day Jack,

Could I suggest that you join http://remlr.com/forum which is the Register of Military Land Rovers and post in their parts wanted section. The other option is http://www.aulro.com which is Australian Land Rover Owners forum. Both are free to register into and each have parts wanted sections.

I need to get a couple of my Land Rovers on the road before I can work out what will be surplus parts. At the moment I am hanging on to everything I have.

The Series 2A have the tail light guards and I only have Series 3 Land Rovers.

Lots of parts like tail lights can be bought off eBay too. I needed to buy all new indicator and brake light sets because the previous owners had a mismatch of all different shapes and sizes over the years plus a tail gate that used to like swing down and break the lenses. The new replacement light units have plastic instead of metal backing plates which do not corrode like the original parts did.

Kind Regards
Lionel

Hello All MLU People,

I received an email this morning saying that my King Dick set of 7 deep offset (Cranked) Whitworth spanners are on their way!

It sure has been one long drawn out process. At least I know where to get my next lot of tools out of the UK from.

Again a special thanks to Lauren for posting the link to Lawson-His retailer.

They are a great company to business with and they communicated very promptly to my enquires, especially Kim Matthews who always answered my emails.


Kind Regards
Lionel
