Jimny castor correction

<< < (9/11) > >>

glaggs:
I have now bent 3 arms (2 quite badly) all on standard bushes. To be fair the first one I also broke and bent the shocker at the same time - hit a tree root at TONG. I'm now using poly bushed arms. I resisted this before as I was tonld the standard bushes allow better articulation but the new arms came without bushes and I had the poly-bush set on the shelf waiting. We'll see what happens. I am also experimenting with reinforcing the arms by welding some angle iron down the insides. Watch this space - when I get 4wd working again.

ps. On another site (Jimny world I think) I saw a vid clip off a Jimny which snapped its std radius arm!
