prado front radius arms wtd

[mudsurfv6]

hi

I'm after both front radius arms for a 94 on KZJ prado.

prefer wellington wairarapa manawatu but could freight from elsewhere.

I have a set of Landrover Disco front radius arms here that come with near new caster correction bushes... if your not brand specific

[mudsurfv6]

was hoping to stay all Toyota, but will keep it in mind thanks

Just be aware there are 2 different front arms in the playdohs..( rears for that matter)
While both have the same shape and location for the bushes the early ones are smaller/ thinner in the castings / steel.
The lighter ones bend easily on the trail.... Well they do in our winch challenge truck lol.....

[mudsurfv6]

good to know that. is the difference 71 or 78? so I would need the 78s?

[kbushnz]

The 2.4L powered trucks (LJ7*) have the thinner arms.
The 3.0L powered trucks (KZJ7*) have the thicker arms.

Thin front arms P/N 48610-60012
Thick front arms P/N 48610-60013

[mudsurfv6]

thanks for that.

Bro those arms are not the strongest. I bent both of mine and I don't even know how (don't know if they were thin or thick ones). Always carried spares to comp. Seeing as you are building from scratch, just use something stronger. Look at Pajero rear radius arms.
That's my two cents.

I've found a prado diff cheap, its missing the radius arms though.

They changed from thin to thick arms about 1994 on the KZJ 7#. My Prado is 1993 and it has thin arms.

80 series ones won't fit in without some mods to get the caster right again....

[mudsurfv6]

be the thinner/weaker ones? kzj stronger?

Look at Pajero rear radius arms.

they don't attach to the prado diff the same by any chance do they?

safari arms attach to the prado diff in the same holes aye? are they stronger? someone said range rover ones are stronger & longer, do they attach the same?

I have a set of Landrover Disco front radius arms

are disco the same as RR?

[De-Ranged]

I won't say positively yes, as i don't have any RR ones but the chassis is so similar that I'd be surprised if there is any difference

I run rangie front arms on my 40 and they have taken some serious abuse in the last 20 yrs. only thing I need to do now is put new bushes in them .much as I hate to say it the rangie arms are pretty bloody strong

[mudsurfv6]

I run rangie front arms on my 40

[mudzuki]
