Body Damage is Cool
Hey everyone. I have a contact over in Australia who is moving back to Canada, and bringing a Land Rover back with him in a seacan. So, he has lots of room for other stuff to help pay for shipping. He will be leaving Australia at the end of June so will be loading the container around the 10-20th of June if everything works how he'd like it to.

I'm trying to find a few cool bits for the Pajero myself and shipping them to him to stuff in the container. He is located in Perth, WA and says things are slightly more expensive out there than they would be in say Sydney. If you're looking for something particular and can get me the name of a manufacturer he is willing to call a few shops locally.

I'm wondering if anyone here would want to join in? Anything you "order" would then need to get to you from Canada. Consider this a "feeler" thread for ideas of what to bring back, and if anyone is interested enough to want to join in. Heck, maybe even a group buy on something otherwise hard to get? So far, another friend is looking at bumpers and ambulance doors for his LandCruiser. Lots of room in the container!

its a good idea if anyone is chasing long range tanks, as there about 900 to eprth for a 132l for a first gen pajero. im sure shipping across the pond is insane.

I do not know if others are like me but I am not sure what all goodies the Aussie have that we do not have that I would want. i guess if they have other gear ratio for the SR axle some ring and pinion gears would be cool.

Would Old Man Emu lifts be cheaper? What part of Canada? I'm in Washington State, so if it were Vancouver area, I can drive up.

Nope, James! Ha, funny coincidence.

Bad news: James isn't bringing over a LandRover anymore, got a new job requiring him to come home earlier.

Good News: He's still willing to help organise shipping shipping. My other LandCruiser friend is still wanting those doors.

I will update again soon.

Those gas can mounts are one of the parts I'm looking for.
