If you can get a pbr product, i would use that as Dave said, i didn't pbr where doing much nowadays for old stuff, i might be wrong though. Other than that, if you can get anything Australian made, that would be pretty good i would think. Datto could know more.

I would use PBR parts if they are available.

Bosch purchased PBR around a decade ago & the let it "die on the vine".

 

AFAIK Bosch (Aust) no longer supply any hydraulic products.

I've e mailed PBR (they haven't replied as yet) but googling reveals they may only sell brake pads/clutch kits these days.

Bummer. Such a shame to see so many iconic Aussie brands disappear or taken over and dismembered whilst the China machine just keeps marching on crushing everything in it's path.
