I think the outback you're talking about is the one I have now, my mate has had it for the past year and I got it from him unregod so its never actually been regod in W.A. Got a pretty clear list of things from mechanics though and if it doesn't get over pits the first time at least ill have a precise list, although so far its looking pretty hopeful.

Ill give those places a ring as well and see what I can suss out
