Front radius arm help asap was created by Chriscov1988
Hi guys I'm changing my front arms this morning with a set from rhino ray and not much mechanical knowledge. Could someone give me some tips or point me in the direction of a "how to"?
Can I change 1 side at a time or do I need to get both sides off and then replace the 2 new ones at the same time.
Thanks Chris

Put handbrake on and chock back wheels then you can do one at a time but you will only be able to attach one bolt axle end until the other arm is also on

Right I'm all done. Was fairly straight forward and only took an hour and a half if that. The difference when driving before and after is like night and day. It doesn't feel as dangerous anymore and the steering doesn't snatch when you get to a certain point so in quite pleased.
The difference between the two:
One side before:
Other side after:
The wheels are a little turned in the second pic so it makes it look a little bit worse but the difference is noticeable.
Fitted:
Will have these standard arms with CC bushes in for sale now. Any ideas what they will be worth?
And finally I took the rear seats out and tidied up my tools, straps etc
And now to clean my other love:
Thanks
