    I was out with Wayne yesterday. While the flex in the suspension is great, more impressive was how flat the car sat. On cross slopes the car did not tilt awkwardly either.
    I picked up a set of these arms through the week and until later in March they have 10% off(see their website). Good saving for something I intended to buy anyway.

    Yes, when I spoke to Greg he said compression and level was a pleasant surprise.

    Kreecha, don't know if low range is going to help you. The zombies are still driving their Tojos and Nee'sans and since their vehicles never break down there's no reason to step out side the vehicle

    PS they only get infected when they step out to refill, which is often...

    I still think superior engineering should make superflex arms for disco 2's. I've looked at the LRA camber correction plates and just wouldn't trust em!! Also looked at arms from the uk and can't justify the cost of getting them landed in Perth.

    Expat, I guess the question to ask for peace of mind is do the Nissan units use similar grade LRA and size and what failures do they have. The actual Rover bracketing on the axles housing, on the Disco 1 at least, is thinner metal still!

    Wayne, its hard to tell, but are your springs detaching or fixed both ends to accommodate this sort of flex?

    Are you referring to the bushes in the arms??

    Not the bushes.

    When expressing concern, I thought you might be referring to the 8 mm? plates that link the lower part of the radius arm to the axle housing. I assume Superflex use similar design as per Nissan re Superflex arm on passenger side, hence query about whether Nissan drivers break/bend these plates.

    Here's an interesting thread, note while BigO are cheaper they may be thinner guage and not include bushes. And 3rds to be avoided. His second link doesn't work, but if you fiddle with the address you get to his block, but still couldnt see pic of damage. Note remark in his blog that welder in Bamaga only ever gets jeeps and rovers needing work. Hmmm.
