Post by: donk498 on June 10, 2016, 06:55:19 PM

Had a look at the front arb on the tj this week, its chewed the copper pipe up.
So where's best place to get spares from?

you can braze a new pipe on to the ring.
you need to drill out the old copper pipe were it goes it to the ring first.

Yeah was planning in that but wanted to see if I could get hold of a replacement before I pulled the diff out.

I got one from Surrey Offroad, I think I've had one from FTE before as well.

Easier to buy new but it will cost you a fortune. Far cheaper to fix yourself even if you need to take it to someone.

You can fix that yourself. Devon4x4 stock the part and YouTube will be your friend. There is no setup in replacing the airline
