Jeep(D.C.)being sold off..

<< < (2/2)

J66P:
Let me have the hole centres I have some lower arms off of a Cherokee which i think are the same, please check first though. I will check hole centres if you let me have the measurement hopefully some body will let us know if the profile is the same.

If you can arrange collection or a meet somewhere you can have them. They still ahev original bushes in and are in good order.

sardonicus:
Thanks for the offer ,but I've just had to bite the bullet and get some from jeep dealer as its my main transport.Hadto get some front brake discs and pads as they were worn down to the metal,quite cheap from local parts place.
The arms are 400mm between hole centres I think when I measured them the other day.and the metal bushes in the centres are 65 and 70mm wide.
The rubber bushes in the front and rear of the arms are different,the front have a gap/hole in them (to allow for axle movement?)which is where they fail,so why not fit solid bushes as in the rear end of the arm?
by the way ,whats a transfer case drop kit??

Bishops Finger:
Basically if Im right on some Jeeps if you lift them by a certain amount you need to drop the transfer case to keep the prop shafts aligned...

J66P:
That's correct all it does is lower the transmission which in turn alters its to help maintain the drivetrain (propshaft) angles to reduce the risk of transmission vibrations that occur when you do suspension lifts.

It would appear that you can lift some Jeeps 4 or 5 inch and have no problems and on others you lift them an inch and your prop feels like its trying to depart from the drivetrain, I lifted my last one 3.5 inch and had no problem this one has gone up what would appear to be 1 to 1.5 inches and there was a vibration so hence the drop plate fitment, and alls fine again now
