Front Radius Arms
The bushes in my front radius arms have seen better days, so time to change them.

I have managed to get the old ones out and am awaiting for the remaining bits press I have ordered to arrive (well done Yodel) Big Cry

I had considered just changing the arms for refurb/new one's but they seem a bit thin on the ground - plenty of ones for raised suspension set ups but not for standard.

Any suggestions? Rgds.

Chris

Mines are a bit clunky too - just waiting on my bits arriving from Duckworth. I’ll be sending it to the local garage to have them replaced - the chap there loves to moan about getting “half the toolbox out” whenever I take it in, but his pal who used to work regularly on L-R products just gets on with it with no fuss. There’s always one I suppose Rolling with laughter

You can change them with a hammer and socket to drift them out and vice to push new back in. A big hammer needed. Cheers
