Cracked it for a manifold at Niss4x4 at 41 Buchanan rd Brooklyn.

Can anyone in the area take a look at it for me please?

They seem to be as rare as rocking horse droppings. Can only find one other and it is in W.A.

If it is ok I can get it paid for and perhaps it may make it's way to Roofy's donk party, from there slowly northward as folk move about.

I would have it couriered/mailed but fear it may be 'lost' in transit or damaged.

Any help greatly appreciated. :beer:

Regards, Rob

What actually needs to be done ,does this manifold need to have a rule put along it to see if its straight?
does it need to be sprayed and checked for cracks, or just a quick visual to see if its ok.
Or do you want some pictures sent to you while there.
As for getting lost you could post it registered, thinking cost would be about $35
going on orders Ive posted north.

3D i reckon a quick visual should be fine. Can't be too much wrong that the human eye couldn't spot in this case.

Don't put yourself out of your way. Happy to reimburse whomever for any fuel cost and the like but don't want to waste anyones time either.

Edit:- If it can be posted for $35.00 that's fine but was concerned about damage in transit.

Niss4x4 are pretty thorough in there packing ways. I've seen how they pack stuff as when I did my conversion I basically lived there. Lol. While their people skills aren't quite there, they have a ton of stuff, the yard is massive, prices are pretty good too. Have they quote you on sending to you?

mudski they have come back with a freight quote of $65 which is fair enough. I'll go that way if as you say they are thorough in packing it!

Lol. I accept no responsibility if they pack it in tissue paper. I'm just going from what I see when I'm there mate. They seem pretty thorough...
