A Frame problem

<< < (2/5) > >>

Wolfie:
If the Discovery is the same as a 110, I seem to recall that the bracket can be unbolted from the chassis. This then makes it easier to get at to attack with a hacksaw/gas axe etc, or take it to someone else to separate the components.

It's quite fun driving with a failed A frame bush isn't it  :lol:

Range Rover Blues:
AFAIK the bracket on the '91 Disco/RRC was bolted on with 3 bolts that you should be able to round off/snap fairly easily.

Its the bolt by the exhaust mount, The big one on the chassis.

Had a go with the air saw but only managed to chew the blad up.

Range Rover Blues:
I know the bolt you mean, it's about the biggest bolt used on the suspension.  We were wondering it it might not be easier to remove the arm and bracket as one piece then strip it down on the bench, the bracket being bolted on with 3 more humble bolts IIRC.

It's possible that later chassis (the round crossmember type) might have the bracket welded on, if this is the case sorry for the confusion.
