Wanted - 2 lower trailing/control arms 80 Series Landcruiser

Post by MNC »

Hi All,

I'm after the 2 lower trailing/control arms from an 80 Series Landcruiser rear diff.

Think they are about 700mm long and 45mm across the rear bush.

If anyone knows of some for sale would appreciate if you could let me know.

Cheers,

There have been a couple of guys on Trademe parting out 80s but so far they either haven't had them or wanted big money.

Are you sure it was in the 'Wrecked Cars listing' ? I couldn't see it...

OK, found the listing. He was one of the guys I had asked before but he wanted quite a few $$$ for the arms :(

Anyone else???

Might have some disco rear arms floating round, just not sure if a yota is worthy of rover parts :mrgreen: :lol:
Think I even have an A arm off one too - rovers get awesome flex from standard and climb well, but the antisquat police my shoot me :lol:

Hi Jerry, Assuming this guy is listing the right photo & parts description the LJ71/78 rears are 3 link arms not the 4 link the 80 series have in the rear:

Cheers Dude, 8)

If I can't find anything in the next week I might take you up on that offer :)

Would mean I can start planning - lining up - visualising (who am I kidding - should say chuck in :roll: ) weld some mounts in and see if truck works :shock: :lol:

Going to look at a Hilux Surf tomorrow which I may be able to do something with... Will let you know.
