Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it
...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Well, I went from 5 to 6, but I guess that's OK, as long as I can get them before my rusty one decides to give out.

I'm interested, maybe for 2 sets, depending on the final price though, so I have not added myself to the list.

Gareth, i've measured those bolts. The chassis mounted ones appear to be 10mm and the outer hub one 12mm, but I suggest we try and find the correct part numbers and confirm. I only measured with a standard tape measure!
I've just looked through jimbobs thread (without much luck) as i'm sure he replaced some of his with new, though I know he made one of the adjusting ones.
These are the bolts if anyone has access to a parts catalogue to confirm the size? (hmm, may not state the size?)
Lower wishbone inboard pivot bolt (to chassis)
Lower wishbone outboard pivot bolt (to hub carrier)
4+ hours stuck in a damp bucket seat with a mad Irishman at the wheel - Deep joy!!!!

The outer is a stud with nuts at each end - M14 IIRC
Inners are M12, one being a cam affair.
I replaced the nuts on mine with Stainless Nylocs a few years ago - can supply if anyone is interested.

I'll need to check on the prices, especially the M14's as, IIRC, they are a fine thread. Watch this space
