Later models have a much stronger, non-slotted bracket. When I put my Defender body onto the Perentie chassis I made sure to use the Defender bracket.

						SupporterI was leaving the carpark at the backbeach this arvo and heard a nasty clunk and found i'd snapped the tie-bar(see attached pic) not surprising as one of the bolts holding the tie-bar/crossrod mounting bracket was missing so all the stress was on the tie bar. The drive home was interesting-if i went over 20km/h the whole front end would shake violently

						SupporterHave sourced a S/H tie-bar- is there any special procedure for refitting? Do i need to jack up the front end first?

						Supporterjust fitted new tie-bar but wondering why there isn't a bush fitted-seems like there should be one?
No bush fitted Matt. It just slops around in that big hole.
Plenty of room for adjustment.
Cheers......Brian
