Pity i live in Sydney though Jeeps.

You can tell i am on holidays at the mo,ment can't you. Each day i post another message regarding what i am doing to fix my jeep.

Todays task is to get the bloody hook on the front. I have got the old one off now...the problem. Can't find the right bolts anywhere. Been to a specialist bolt shop in artarmon this morning and hardware house and both dont have any. Where did you guys get yours?? In sydney that is.

And whats the deal with a spacer? Is it no good just bolting the hook onto the bar?

Thats it for now. I am sure more questions will arise through the day though. Reckon i'll find some bolts on the half tank i got left? :D

I went to a trialer place to get them, they seem to have a decent range. We have a place's like "coventry fasters" that also stock them. You could also try any place that stocks agricultrial hardware.
I didn't worry about spacers at the front just gave an extra few turns to squash the rubber.

sourced the bolts now. If anyone needs any nuts bolts etc go to the Lee Bros in North Parramatta. They where really friendly and helpful unlike all the other places i went to. I will definately go back again.

Coventy in Artarmon?
Been there - they are USELESS.
Aside from the fact that as bolt specialists they should have a bigger range - the idiots behind the counter have NFI....
