Classic Range Rover Radius arms onto a 90

[dwappat]

Hi everyone,

The bushes on the front Radius arms from my 1984 LR90 are very worn and need replacing. Instead of trying to struggle with removing the arms and then trying to fit the new urethane bushes to these,(all the while the truck is jacked up and not roadworthy) I had and ingenous thought (so I thought!!!!) of picking up a spare set of arms from a Range Rover Classic as I figure they are the same narrow gauge at the front. Have I been too hasty and acquired radius arms that wont fit my 90?

depends on the width of the radius arms at the axle end. range rover ones may well be wider by about 10mm

Also make sure they are not the early imperial ones, they chassis end is smaller on the imperial ones.

I believe that they are both the narrow bushed ones, but as you said, they might be the small circumference body mount type at the rear. Am I able to buy the matching rear bushes for a Range rover and fit them to my 90?

The mounts on the chassis are different too, the holes are smaller for the imperial arms. A mate with an very early RRC had to change the mounts on the chassis to fit the later metric raduis arms.

I have a 82 90 & have some castor correction arms off my old 89 Disco, anyone know if these are the same

Thanks in advance
