Gearbox is pissing oil [emoji2959][emoji2959]
Looks like it is coming out of the input shaft plus a bit out of the selector shaft - good news is it’s not coming out of the output shaft so I got one right [emoji1787][emoji1787]

Re: front brake upgrade: semi-huck to duo-servo
Stripped down, no real surprises- has lost a wheel on the passenger’s side at some stage in the last 60 years had a hell of a time getting this drum off - a bit of hear and a FBH got the job done

Re: Family Affair Ek Ute
If you stick with a stock diff there are plenty of spares around if you do happen to do an axle, if you go Torana diff to get more dish on your wheels pretty sure there are aftermarket axles available for them.

Re: Family Affair Ek Ute
Agree with Clay re the caliper.
What engine are you running ? A 9" is overkill unless you are planning on a 400+hp donk and sticky tyres

Re: Anyone use one of these or know someone who has??

Thinking about one for the 2 door - either this or a Rodtech , trying to find someone who has actually installed one and driven the car with one to see what problems they had with them.
