As Kelvin mentioned,one bolt will be way too much.The holes just need to be slotted.I have this done on my 130

Hi, I just joined this forum as I am looking for castor corrected swivels for my 300Tdi Discovery (1998, LHD, Trophy, 3dr), which is lifted by OME springs (2") and spacers (1" by double spring seats on the front axle, and 2" spacer blocks on the rear one). Castor corrected radius arms are fitted (6 degree as the pre-owner told me), which leads to an pinion angle that is not suited for the double-cardon-prop (Disco 2). I am a little bit concerned of slotting the holes in the swivel-flange on a home-made basis. Are there no suppliers of fabricated castor corrected swivels in Australia? Kind regards Heinz
