If you have lifted you Land Rover Defender, Disco1, RRC your caster will be far from the factory spec of +3deg, making your vehicles steering feel...floaty, tram tracking wanting to follow undulations in the road surface...and generally steering like a unicycle.
The cure for this is to fit caster corrected bushes, OR caster corrected arms, OR have us slot your swivel balls.
Addressing caster by way of bushes is the cheapest way - and most suited to vehicles running non-long travel suspension systems (lift only), as in a long travel system the bushes further hold up the long travel your trying to achieve out of the front end.
Perenties - as these in std form are 2" taller/lifted over a civilian Defender, their caster is as you guessed it...OUT! (they did not adress caster correction!) Pop a paid of caster bushes in an instantly improve your steering and the way the truck drives noticeably!
There is no doubt that Lemforder have got the reputation of being the toughest, and longest lasting tie rod end on the market for Land Rovers...and its a reputation well deserved in our opinion!
If you are looking for the longest lasting most reliable tie rod ends - then these are for you. Will outlast ANY cheaper greasable units by a long shot.
this is the ONLY tie rod end we recomend using with our Chromoly Track rods and Drag Links due to the superior strength of these
DO YOU HAVE A SET OF THE OLD SUPERIOR ENGINEERING TRAILING ARMS (see 2nd pic in the listing)?
Bushes out of the packet are to suit 14mm Nissan bolt - HOWEVER, Land Rover use 16mm bolt at the axle..so these ones need to be drilled out to suit! Please select if you require pre-drilled in the options.
The chassis end required no drilling and is 'out of the packet' 14mm
This is an WIDE ANGLE Adjustable& Greaseable A-Frame Ball Joint ready pressed into the housing to make it much easier for you to fit to your Land Rover, A frame joints can be very difficult to get out of the old housing and just as difficult to press the new one in, this is why we have done this ready assembled in the housing.
This A-Frame Ball Joint can be adjusted if you do find you get play. To adjust, tighten the 19mm adjuster nut 1/4 turn at a time until the play has gone and knock over the lock tabs once done. By greasing the a-frame ball joint you will prevent the adjuster nut from seizing up which is common with adjustable joints.
Gwynn is now replacing the Standard Rubber Boots on our A-Frame Ball Joints with UPGRADEDpolyurethane POLY BOOTS, He is doing this during assembly here as they are not as easy to change later once fitted on a vehicle. They are also pre greased.
A common problem with Rubber Boots these days is perishing/cracking, Rubber doesn’t seem to be what it used to be. Polyurethane will not perish/crack like normal Rubber so will give a much longer service life.
**NOTE** Please check your Upper A-Frame Arms, Late PUMA the brackets are welded on the A-Frame Cross Member and the bushes use M16 Bolts, this is approx 2009 onwards. Please check your Chassis Number is 9A766383 onwards.
2007 to approx 2009 either have Bolt On “Crows Feet” brackets on the A-Frame Cross Member or the brackets are welded onto the Cross Member, but use 3/4UNF Bolts, the part number you need to order for the earlier kit is SPF0128K (chassis Number is to 9A766382) If you are unsure then you must check and measure your Upper A-Frame Bolts to see if they are 3/4 UNF (EARLY) or M16 (LATE)
