Rear axle to radius arm mounts - ripped through was created by mc_nebula
I've busted my mounts from the rear arms to the axle. The garage think it's my lockrite doing the damage. This doesn't surprise me too much.
Fortunately, I have a wealth of spares, including an axle casing, but does anyone make the tabs/carriers?
My google-fu turned up this thread, which is almost exactly the same issue as I have - www.bigjimny.com/forum/7-jimny-technical...ear-axle-mounts.html
But it looks like BigJimny doesn't make them any more??
Is there a solution to elongated holes also? Perhaps have a washer welded on, over the elongated hole, making it round again??
Cheers,
Alistair.

They were originally made by the Off Road Armoury but they have turned their back on us now!
Rockwatt at Rockwatt Engineering and Russ at Jimny Bits are our fabrication saviours now!

Not entirely true. Rob still makes stuff for the Jimny. But only custom orders and will probably have some lead time.
