Well, just got back from Florida complete with a set of Jeepin al a arms. What a bargin! Less than £200 for tha pair (in the UK you can expect to pay £150 each at a dealership!). They look so well built and I'm very excited to fit them.

I need to know whether I fill them with grease prior to or after fitting them? Any recommendations for grease specs?

Thanks,

Ian

You can squeeze a couple pumps into them while they are off and then fill them up once installed. Either way it doesn't really matter. Oh and congrats on the arms.......but how much $ did they cost including the trip $ in there? :lol:

KJ Lad,

You know that those A Arms are designed to drive on the right side of the road, don't you. have the camber and caster built in for US right side roads. Good luck getting those things aligned to steer straight on the left side of the road.
