roamingyak Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) I'm looking to change all of the bushes at the front of my 1991 110, however it is fitted with a TD5 axle so it makes it harder to blindly order the correct parts.https://www.lrworkshop.com/diagrams/land-rover-defender-axles-suspension/front-suspension/radius-arms-links_52609#5 Armed only with the knowledge that I have a TD5 front axle how can I determine if I should order:ANR3410 https://www.lrworkshop.com/parts/ANR3410 (Chassis VINs to 2A626645 (2002 MY) RBX101340 https://www.lrworkshop.com/parts/RBX101340 (Chassis VINs from 2A626646 (2002 MY) If it helps, the Radius arm to axle bush is the '46mm wide - To KA' version Edited December 30, 2018 by roamingyak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex Member Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 The older one is 30 mm diameter with an M14 bolt. The newer is 35 mm with an M16 bolt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roamingyak Posted December 30, 2018 Author Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) Awesome, definitely M16 bolts, so I can order with confidence, plus I know know a little more about my Landy 😉 Thanks!! 😁 Edited December 30, 2018 by roamingyak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roamingyak Posted December 30, 2018 Author Share Posted December 30, 2018 Also probably worth checking this as well if somebody can help.... On the Radius arm to chassis bush there is eitherNRC4514 - to VA130784 (1997 MY) or ANR6971 - from VA130785 (1997 MY) Is there any way to tell them apart? Else I'm guessing I go for the VIN correct option (NRC4514) on that one seeing as the Radius arm to axle bush is VIN correct so they should match....

NRC4514 as they're matched to the chassis hole rather than the radius arm. 6 hours ago, roamingyak said: If it helps, the Radius arm to axle bush is the '46mm wide - To KA' version Are you using 46mm wide front radius arms?

Are you using 46mm wide front radius arms? Yes, you should clarify. None of them are 46 mm. You will need the wide bushings and arms for the TD5 axle. If you use the narrow arm and the wide axle, it will all be very loose. Below are the metric numbers, but the real size is the narrow is 1-1/2" width at the radius arm and the wide is 1-3/4". Narrow: * Outer diameter: 51.00mm * Outer length: 38.00mm * Inner diameter: 16.00mm * Inner length: 47.00mm Wide: * Outer diameter: 50.50mm * Outer length: 44.30mm * Inner diameter: 16.20mm * Inner length: 54.00mm Edited December 30, 2018 by Red90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, at least when I measure them fitted that what it shows. It's 45mm across and I can see the bush is sticking out a mm or so either side Edited January 9, 2019 by roamingyak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Member Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 That is a wide arm. The 44.3 mm (1.75") wide bush. They don't stick out past the arm. I'm not sure what you are saying is sticking out a mm. The inner sleeve is wider than the bush (54 mm), which is what the bolt goes through.
