[ROVERNET - UK] oil anyone update

[Ian Gilleran]

Try Brakepro 79 Grose Street Paramatta NSW Phone (00612)96831522 .They also
have a branch at Thornleigh .I got talking to them after they fixed new
bonded drum brakes and they apparently operate a ball joint refurbishment
scheme.

I can verify that the tappet/lifter noise has abated-living a mile across
the valley from your house thanks to Nulon!!!

Cheers
