    l will admit having more than a pasting interest in The AUSTIN CHAMP not only who spent many hours working on them but the history of them which prompted to dig out their tech manuals which l got over fifty years ago they like me have aged covered in oily finger prints turned yellow and on some page spots of blood dam crown wheel and pinions l will watch with interest your efforts there are some parts here in uk found NOS RIGHT HAND REAR WHEEL cylinders seal kits but those should be available in the states. NOS new old stock CH.bmp

    if you cannot get original front brake cylinders you can make use of series twoA LAND ROVER brake cylinders you just have to remove a small amount from the casting to make them fit the rears because of how the hand brake linkage is part of the casting is a different matter l would if salvageable have them sleeved if the bores pitted there are a company or two in UK that sell champ parts l can ask about availability for you

    The FV 18O2A prototype or box champ did indeed have flasher type indicators the lighting on champs did change the rear trumpet style tail lights and replaced by the round screw in glass type as seen on later land rovers also the same style indicators were fitted. BAOR modification MOD 1 fit semiphores MOD 5 electric 24 volt trafficators as l pointed out l never saw them but l did see the later type

    ALL military champs were 24 volt and you could buy 24 volt semiphore indicators the question is were they fitted to champs while used by the military
