Just purchased my first T3 Syncro 1989.

I am looking to find someone to fix the diff lock on the rear and install a decoupler to replace the VC and install a diff lock on the front.

So I can get the puppy off road!

I am on the Gold Coast so somewhere in SEQ would be good.

hello and welcome! why do you need a front diff lock? where do you plan on getting stuck?? the rear diff lock is probably a sticky actuator, its a little difficult to remove, but an easy fix.
a decoupler is also an easy job, topping up the trans oil will probably be harder!
as Ahoogah says, look on the kombi club (spesh 16"syncro blog)

Thanks for the responses.

I will look more closely at the rear diff lock and see if it a easy job for me, here's hoping.

Given that "...the decoupler is an easy job" - where do I get one? any hints
